What does a Honeywell Motorised valve do?

Motorised valves are used to split or divert the flow. The heated water can either be sent to the radiators (or underfloor heating) or to the cylinder coil to heat the domestic hot tap water. The cooled circulating water is then returned to the boiler to be heated again.

How do you fix a sticking zone valve?

If the motor assembly is sticking, change the powerhead. If the plunger or paddle is sticking, a plumber will have to change the valve assembly. If the zone valve problem is found at night and it can wait until the next working day, or you do not have the parts with you, open the valve manually.

Why do my radiators come on when the heating is turned off?

Radiators coming on when thermostat is off. If the anti gravity valve is broken or blocked and is not doing its job of stopping the natural convection process, it means heat will rise through your central heating system. Your radiators will be on, even though your thermostat is off.

Why does my boiler keep firing up when heating is off?

Pre-heating You might hear your boiler fire up from time to time, even when the heating is off and you’re not drawing any hot water. This is completely normal, and is there to ensure you have hot water when you turn it on.

Why is my heating coming on randomly?

Most heating systems are setup to automatically turn on and off based upon the setting of a thermostat. When heat is required (i.e. thermostat reading lower than setting) then the heat system will come on till the thermostat reads a new temperature higher than the setting.

Why is 1 radiator in my house cold?

Why is one radiator cold when the heating is on? One cold radiator usually indicates that either there is air in the system or there is a stuck valve within that radiator. The thermostatic radiator valve (TRV), like the one pictured below, controls the flow of hot water to the radiator.

Why does my boiler come on in the middle of the night?

It’s true that boilers do turn on from time to time during the night. Combi boilers work best when the heat exchanger inside is kept warm, so it will need “topping up” a few times overnight to make sure you have instant hot water when you need it.

Why does my heating come on when it shouldn t?

If the interior temperature falls below that value, then the thermostat will be “on” at any setting, because no matter what temperature you set the thermostat to, the interior temperature will be lower than the thermostat setting – and that’s the rule the thermostat uses to decide whether to turn on or not.

Why does my heating keep coming on when its off?

A check valve is used to stop the natural convection from warming up your home when your heating is switched off. If the check valve is broken or blocked, heat will rise through your system causing your radiators to stay hot. Once again, contact a qualified professional to come and check what the problem is.

What kind of valves do Honeywell HVAC companies use?
