Hi... I am looking for advice as to why my we underfloor heating in our extension isnt working. Weve had it 3 years now and it stopped working about 2 days ago. Sorry im not familiar with all the terminology but will provide as much details as i can
Valiant boiler (also 3 years old)
Drayton Tempest Seven Zone controller - 2 zones (normal CH and UFH)
Drayton Combi-stat (controls UFH temp)
Honeywell V4043H1056 valves x2
The main central heating and hot water is ok.
Checks done so far:
1. Boiler pressure was a bit low but still ok, have increased slightly
2. turning on UFH i can hear the boiler running
3. Both honeywell valves set to Auto. Unable to set to Manual as seems like some metal blocking it.
4. Electric is ok to Drayton zone controller
5. There is a thermostatic valve below the boiler, i think its a manifold?? Which looks like a junction pipe close to the pump... Its set to highest 50 degrees.
6. I can hear the pump working and have tried the 3 different speed settings.
7. The red valves beneath the honeywell valves are open.
8. Opened up the Drayton Combi-stat, wiring is in place (3 wires)
9. Tracing the UFH Honeywell valves down to the manifold/pump appeared to be hot and cold intermittently. Also i am sure the turning on of the UFH calls to the boiler, can feel heat in the pipes...
Will try and post some pics... In the meantime if anyone has any ideas on what i can try next would appreciate it..
Thanks
