We have a fairly modern (about 6 years old) central heating system. Recently it has stopped turning off on the timer and continues even though the room temperature has gone well past the temperature set on the room thermostat. The only way to turn off the heating has been to switch off the system at the mains. I presume there is some kind of control on the system which respondes to the timer and/or thermostat and this has broken down, is this correct? If so is it the small metal box on the pipes near the boiler and can these be replaced easily? Really appreciate anybody's help.
