This is right out of my depth. Original problem was that the overflow had been running for so long and so much that the brickwork has started crumbling. Changed the valve. Tested the controls, check seemed to work. Although I thought that the emersion was wired into the shower pump, and the "programmer" wasn't. Heating cost him a fortune lady week.
A few days later fella rang up, central heating not working?!
Old 3 port, pumped for ch. See picture, if I can attach. The thing is there's no boiler? I didn't look in the loft, but, feels said there's nothing up there. Recently bought the flat. It seems to be emersion only.
It's an ELSON tank. Well two, one which i think it's the cold, supply, And the other the with an f+e above, in one? There's two coils and an emersion. Really old controls- Randal - blue/red and flip switch for dhw/ check. Any advice or links to find what it's all about. Checked the 3 port and it seems to be switching. It's a wet one.
Alternatively replacement electric ?...?...?
