New potential issue!

Read it but there’s not much you can do fella without another engineer. Think you’re just going to have to badger the last guy

I'll try calling him tomorrow, if no joy guess I'll have to find another engineer in the Berkshire area!

Which of these 2 pipes out of the tank should be cold btw? I know the one at the back is the cold water pipe but what of the other 2, and are either of those valves bleed valve? In case it's trapped air giving me grief?

 

[Riley]

What do you mean cold?? As in mains cold? Call me daft you have tried opening the bleed valve to see if there’s air

That's what I'd like to know which one is the correct valve. To the right of the 3 way or above

 

[Riley]

Can’t see one to the right of the valve but the bleed valve above the valve is the one you want

Sorry to sound like a complete tool, is this the one you mean

 

[Riley]

Yes that one

 

[Leeccc]

Yes that one

No air blockage. Bugger, any others

I suggest you get the last engineer back mate. He will be busy and difficult to get hold of. But will be worth it in the end.

I'll give him another call tomorrow.

 

[Leeccc]

I'll give him another call tomorrow.

He'll call me back later .
Could it be that the valve is partly blocked with sludge? The first engineer after draining the system put some cleaner in the small tank to help clean out the system, as the boiler installation guy didn't flush system at all.

Sludge will not block it that quickly if it is new.

My money is on another wiring Fault

I’m not saying anything. Just going through the processes

I hope it's a simple thing , I've had enough of it now. How can it possibly go wrong within such a short time of it being fixed? I heard it wurr when he sorted out the wiring? The mind boggles!

As I’ve said about 4 times though mate if (I know we don’t know for sure) the motor was receiving a constant power and was stuck in one position the motor could have worn very quickly I am amazed he didn’t replace the valve when he knew it had been stuck in one posotion

I know , it's just I'm so bloody frustrated with it Now!

Which we are pretty sure was getting a permanent love and is probably burnt out

Woo lucky valve!

 

[Leeccc]

Proper working system now! 3 way replaced, wiring re done

 

[Harvest Fields]

Good

 

[Riley]

Good man

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Thanx for coming back

 

[Leeccc]

Turns out the 3 way valve wasn't opening fully. Plus hive system fitted, some folk out there aren't fans but I must say I'm rather impressed so far!
