I have an Albion thermal store system, with 2 pumps ( boiler and ch ). This was in house when we bought it.
I have been using it with the hw and ch switching on twice a day, but was advised that it was better with a thermal store to have the HW on all day, keeping the thermal store at optimal temp. This is now how I run it.
The problem I have is that the boiler pump keeps running after the store is up to temp. So the water is being circulated around the boiler system, but the boiler isn't firing. I think this could be for a couple of reasons.
Problem with boiler overrun keeping pump running for longer than it should.
Or could it be that the tank stat is duff, so it thinks the water isn't at temp, and keeps the pump and boiler running. The boiler however doesn't fire because the water is at temp.
Can anybody confirm my reasoning, and maybe help with any other possible causes.
Thanks Martin
