When it's in hot water on from programme, with cylinder start set to 55-60 boiler should fire. Probably heads gone on actuator or fault with motor or three port wiring

That's new pipes, not as many as I thought but new none the less.

A bit more info, when the new Plumber was doing his stuff the water he got to run clear and the hot water started to heat up, he then tried the heating side and that screwed the whole system.water went all crap again and boiler wouldn't fire.

They've replaced the cold feed, it's a typical place for the system to block up there. Obviously there's no way of knowing whether it was blocked or not though. I personally wouldn't have installed a iso valve either, I'd have gone with a full bore valve and removed the handle so it can't accidently be turned off.

Sounds like a good power flush should see you right.
 
To me it looks like the pumps are fine it's the fact that the flow and return are joined together that gets me.

But in all honesty I cant really make every thing out as it hurts my eyes. RIP it out and do it again.

It's not required but I thought that was a bypass and that the gate valve would only be partially open.
 
I’d think about getting in touch with @Brambles, very knowledgeable (more than me, which isn’t hard :D). Didn’t know he was near to you? Might actually get it sorted.
