I have a WB 550 cdi highflow installed about 2 years old at the time of a large home extension. 3 weeks ago I had a gas engineer install 2 two port zone valves to separate the new from the old areas of heating. A straight forward install of the valve on the flow to the existing heating circuit and a valve on the flow of the new area. The WB dt20rf thermostat and twin channel prog were removed and replaced with an external drayton twin channel prog and two Siemens wireless thermostats.
All seemed ok but within 24 hrs the hot water would not fire up on demand from a tap, to rectify the fault I would need to turn on the heat and then call for water. The fault seemed to be getting worse with no shower in the morning (without going and turning on the heating first etc). From this set up the hot water is now not programmable to heat the internal store of water.
Called the engineer out who has temporarily replaced the programmer and thermostat and the fault has disappeared, he is due to come back and recify whatever but I wanted to get a heads up on what may be wrong.....
Should there be a bypass installed?, I have trv's on all rads except on a bathroom radiator in each of the two zones......
Is the fact that the boiler is now running as a pure combi without the water store creating a fault ?, should there be another programmer for the water?
I first assumed that I had a faulty flow switch or diverter valve but the fault is cured with the reversion to the original set up (and the zone valves locked open)....
Any ideas anyone please??
