i have a query. its been bugging me since we bought our flat 3 years ago.
it was fitted with a Radiant RSF24 combi boiler (wall mounted).
it works fine, however, the timer doesnt.
its one of those mechanical timers which has an Off / Auto / On switch above it.
Off = boiler cannot be activated by thermostat switch in the hall way
auto = turns on and off as per timer settings
on = boiler can be activated by thermostat in hallway and stays on until temperature is reached.
my bug is with the 'auto' setting.
i can select the time, however, the timer doesnt move at all - unless i move it to the set time. for example:
if its 9am and the timer is set to come on for 10am till 12noon, it wont move so the heating will never come on.
but if i move the timer so it hits 10am - it'll come on and the timer will move through the set time and stop once it gets to 12 noon time.
basically this means i cannot set the timer at all - so cant have the heating come on an hour before i wake up, or before i get home etc....
i've no idea what the issue could be....??? any help out there?
