Just had to replace a CH zone valve that has probably been the cause of my CH system’s intermittency. It looks like the motor is just too weak to push the valve switching mechanism far enough to trigger the micro-switch.
Oddly, this hasn’t been happening all the time but yesterday it just stopped triggering the CH altogether. Is this a normal failure mode for these motors? Just curious.
The valve itself moves freely so there’s no resistance there. The motor just seems too weak to work against the return spring.
