My boiler wiring has not gone to plan!

So it was personal contact and not through the thread, but what did you do to save the day? what was wrong? and how was it put right?

Boiler + happy hippy = boiler not working
Boiler - happy hippy = boiler working

Temporarily bypassed the zone valves so the system can work as a single zone! It’s only a small three bed! Happy Hippy will be returning after Christmas to fit a second Hive to split the property into two zones, I believe!

The programmer was wired directly into the boiler so when it was firing it up, it wouldn’t open the zone valves but instead just run through the auto bypass! Once Happy Hippy returns I imagine he’ll wire both receivers into the control box near the zone valves! A simple mistake which I see probably once a month!

But a long story short, what westward10 said!

Jesus Christ Westward. I am actually crying with laughter.
Although the sad, worrying truth is that it may well be correct
Luckily @LmarshallSparks has convinced me to go on a heating course, specifically for the electrics, so when I return I will have learnt that you can't change a 2 zone system into a 1 zone, purely by willing it to happen.

Which heating course are you looking at? I could be interested in such a thing myself! A weakness for me most certainly.

wow, £80 covers good food for 1 to 2 days, depending on your preferences.

I would check with the provider that it is £80 for food and a free training course.
if not then it might be £74.50 for a training course and £5.50 for some soggy sandwiches.

Best of luck with your course, I am jesting just a little bit about the food but also have been on too many courses to list and know what they are like!

Normally I would agree James! However at the Worcester factory’s the food is top rate! It’s highly recommended! I’ll be having a roast dinner both days!!

 

[littlespark]

Free food?!? Where do I sign up?

Soggy sandwich, transparent coffee and a bag of scampi fries…. Sounds delish…

Unfortunately the days off food being served at say an initial verification course or health and safety etc are gone from my areas. I can remember doing a course in Inverness and we had a banquit, top notch scran ,spaghetti bolognise, beef stew and dumplings the lot .select seem to be miserable gits

I did an NIC run EV course a couple years ago at a posh(ish) hotel in Edinburgh. They had laid on a sandwich buffet, nice enough spread, and the free coffee from hotel barista….
Most recently did a few green courses and my 18th update at the local college…. Cheap cafeteria, but they did have the full Scottish on a roll option….. square and link sausage!



Ops…. Kinda drew the thread off tangent. ️️

Careful @littlespark or we might get further off track re the merits of link vs square sausage, what sauce if any, and the ingredients of a "full Scottish" and whether beans should be included...
again!

McGhee's and Morton's are the go-to breakfast rolls down here in Glasgow, fyi!
Tesco stock McGhee's but I don't know if that's just a local thing.
