Isn't it typical!!

My fooking boilers decided to stop heating my house on the day I spent my last £230 paying the gas n electric bill!!

 

Tiz fooking freezing now. Still got hot water though

[retrorigg]

thats wots know as the law of fooking sod

If the boiler is still working and giving hot water then it's probably something to do with the heating system supply valve, either it's servo motor has failed, the valve itself is stuck or control of it has failed, either way, there's usually the option to open it manually (if you can find the valve itself)

Tried that Scott & it starts pumping, then immediately stops again

Is there not a manual overide so the boiler can heat the rads? mine has but it bypasses the stat on the wall and you have to turn it on and off at the manual valve ?

No - i had the choice of either hot water or heating, not both so opted for water so we can at lleast keep clean

It's for times like this you might want to think about an electric shower. Then you can shower, boil a kettle for washing up and hope your washing machine heats it's own water (most do) and not have to worry about hot water in the taps.

I'm only renting so not my choice Fred. Can't complain really, its being sorted & I have a lovely home even if I do say so myelf

[FredTransit]

Ah fair enough, but if you are living there it's as much for your benefit to have a shower fitted as the landlord's.
