I have a potterton boiler and a Danfoss SET 5 timer. The timer controls CH and HW seperately.
Wit the timer, both CH and HW use the same set of 3 on/off timers (24 hour period) but you can then set HW and CH independently by settung setting either to 'allday', 'auto' or 'off'. Auto follows the 3 on/offs and 'allday' is on at ON1 then only goes off at OFF3.
The problem is the boiler does not seem to respond to the timer. It is staying on. The whole CH/HW system was installed by British Gas and has worked fine for over 10 years.
If I open up the radiator thermostat/valves when the timer says off, the boiler ignites and the respective radiators heat up. The timer appears to operate correctly in itself (LCD responds as expected when the buttons are pressed.
Also the boiler responds to the thermostat on the boiler itself. I can force it on or off by turning up/down thermostat.
I have homecare 200, but before calling them up, I was wondering if this is likely a timer fault and if so any checks I could make to confirm this. I wouldn't be surprised if my homecare doesn't cover the timer too. If I can pinpoint timer as the culprit, I'm assuming it is fairly straight forward wiring in a replacement, especially if I can get similar model timer.
Does this sound like a fault with the timer? I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks.
