    Honeywell motorised valve issue

    Hi all. I've got a problem where my boiler is running 24/7. The issue seems to be with the Honeywell motorised valves. On 2 of the 3 zone valves, there's no resistance when using the manual lever, so I assumed 2 of the valves were stuck open. However, I've taken the motor off and there's still...

    Does anyone know anything about sunvic actuators

    Hello, I am going to need to replace the two in my airing cupboard and I've been informed I have to replace them with Sunvics. I can't use other manufacturers as it would mean replacing the valves as well. Is that correct? I have an SZM1802 and an SZM1803. Thanks.

    As my hot water is from solar I only need the 'central heating' on. But now I find the boiler will only fire up and the central heating work if the 'domestic hot water' is turned on too. It has been fine before but now when I need heating on more it refuses to fire up unless the hot water is...
