White valve in loft shut.

both valves on loft radiator shut off.

no hot water in ch.

as soon as I open Valves on loft rad, other rads heat up.

Any ideas?
 
Call a plumber to turn pump around :)

As I said in a previous comment, a few years ago when a plumber changed 3 port valve he mentioned it "might be upside down"

latest plumber is gas safe and I mentioned it to him but he confirms it is definitely not the wrong way round???

could the symptoms in my post above be caused by the pump being wrong way round?
 
if a garage says your brakes are ok but your car doesnt stop, then what do you do!

I fully accept what you are saying.

if I can confirm my problems described above are caused by a pump being backwards at least I can tell a plumber my problems before I call him.

This is a wind up! Too many conincidences...valve "MAY" be the wrong way round, pump is the wrong way round, but gas safe engineer says it's okay, non-return valve behaves as it's the wrong way round, but arrow suggests it's correct.
Get someone in who knows what they're doing; if you call a plumber and try telling him what needs to be done, you'll just confuse matters.
Pay a sensible rate, and let him/her sort it out!
