    On site now. Can I wire a honeywell 3 port in here?

    See pic. Current 3 port is a sunvic dm5601. No grey wire on existing just orange, white, yellow, blue and earth? Will a honeywell be able to be wired up here? I can't find a wiring guide for this model of sunvic.

    Honeywell 3 port diverter snag?

    G'Day fellers. Appreciate your help please: When my boiler fires up it heats the water and radiators regardless of what is selected. I'm guessing that this means the valve is not moving from the de-energised position? Its a Honeywell V4073A. The manual/auto lever moves freely both ways and...

    Unused UFH port...........

    Afternoon Lads and Lasses. I am setting up a 2 circuit UFH system the manifold has 3 ports. Do I blank off the spare ports or do I fit a loop and leave it turned off ? The other ports will be controlled with room stats.

    Flue Location.. Is it a Balcony, a Car Port or a Soffitt?

    Hi. I'm new to all this, and not sure it's appropriate, so be gentle with me. This flue is to my newly fitted replacement Ideal Logic Max boiler. The position is the same as it was with my old boiler. I have been told in the past that it was incorrect, but my fitter has assured me it is now OK...

    How stiff should the 3 port valve be?

    Had a couple occasions where roomstat was calling for heat but boiler wouldn't fire. Wiggled the head on the 3 port valve (Drayton MA1) and the lever would then move from M to H, there'd be a click, the pump would come on and the boiler would fire. Actually on both occasions it looked like the...

    My Altech 010 seized (motor & valve), so I ordered another off eBay. After it arrived, I removed my duff one, and when I opened the new box it was actually a Salus! Not the end of the world I thought, so I swapped over the valves, but now I'm connecting the wiring, there's one white wire left...

    3 port valve problem

    Why does my heating only work when hot water is satisfied, the motorised valve only opens when hot water is up to temp when I turn up cylinder stat valve shuts again. Worked ok for long enough wondering if its the synchron motor but it seems to open valve ok when hot water is satisfied.

    Advice on 3 port motorised valve? - I have an unusual wiring requirement

    Are there any 3 port motorised valves (preferable cheap) that do not require a constant mains current to flow when the value is either open or closed (ie it just needs current while actually opening or closing)? I'm trying to cobble together something for a small diesel heater to be used in a...

    When CH is switched off the 3 port valve stays in the man position therefore the CH stays on

    I have a Camray 5 90 external combi oil fired boiler. I replaced the 3 port valve body only as it was leaking and after that seemed to work ok. However shortly after when CH was being called for the accuator wasnt moving and had to manually be moved to man position to get CH. However the other...

    Should my 3 port valve be a 2 port valve?

    Hi, I bought a house last (built 1988) which had a 3 port valve (Honeywell V4073A), a vented cylinder and 2x tanks in the loft. I had a plumbing company remove the cylinder, 2x tanks and replace it with an pressurised cylinder and filling loop along with new radiators. They chose to keep the...
