No programmer to control radiators

Any pictures of the boiler ?

Yes - see below. Think it is Worcester Greenstar 30CDi. Thanks

Pipes to the left and under the boiler please

And any reason why the boiler case isn’t on properly?

Any reason for the dodgy wiring too?

As in put another valve on the pipe where indicated in red (similar to the existing one connected to the pipe that leads to the hot water pipe) or if not there or not just there, where?

Also, what is wrong about the boiler case? I opened the bottom panel to show the buttons/dials/LCD panel, but it is normally closed.

Thanks very much!

I was wondering if the wiring was a bit weird as there is one neutral wire and one earth that don't appear to be used at all, plus a black wire that one end at least doesn't seem to be connected to anything.

Should I get the installer of the hot water cylinder - who installed a few months ago - back to look at this? They are qualified central heating and boiler installers so if the wiring is poor that is a bit worrying.

Thanks

When you just turn hot water on do any of the rads warm up ?

No, doesn't seem like it.

Think I'll go down the route of installing smart TRVs on each radiator - there are 7 or so - rather than have an engineer fit a new motorised valve to control the central heating.

Still need to get the engineer in who did the hot water cylinder installation to check the wires.

thank you

So there’s a valve somewhere else it would heat up

Unless it’s been wired into the boiler RT connection?

This needs someone to go through it.
My advice would be to get someone out to look at it.
Would recommend not telling engineer what you want or think it could be, just what's happening, how you want it to work and any recent changes youve made.
After they've checked it out you could go through options with them.
