Just had a look and Drayton kit is the most expensive. I'll leave it upto him what make he wants to use.

Quick update for this problem that started a few weeks ago. When heating channel off and and hot water selected the radiators get hot. We put this down to a faulty zone valve on the CH. Fitted two brand new zone valves this morning. Tested and CH and HW worked fine when selected seperately. Now he's telling me that same problem is happening again with radiators getting hot when HW only selected. Any thoughts?

Thanks

Yes everything seems ok. I'm going round again later today to investigate more. Surely the zone valve has not packed in again?!

If your confident the controls side is functioning correct as Corbs said then it could be a plumbing issue, reverse circulation or cylinder isn't the last "T" on the return to the boiler.

I had this the other week, converted y plan to s plan to introduce UFH easier, but upstairs rads came on with hot water, turned out to be a plumbing issue with rads plumbed after hw valve.

Turns out the zone valve base was faulty. It was brand new fitted yesterday. Swapped for another new one and everything is working as should now. [emoji106]

i physically let out a sigh of relief for you. We've all been in that situation when you think you've done everything to finish a job and for some reason it doesn't work.
