Hi
We put in our central boiler OWB this summer, and Sept 1st, we fired it up. It has been running all month. Heating the hot water, and then some heat for the house. No problems.
I noticed yesterday morning, that the inside furnace blower was running, and running for hours NON STOP.......
I got the hubby on the phone, and had to shut it down with the switch on the old furnace. Hubby let the fire go down / out in the outside boiler.
Finally got the guy on the phone who sold us the unit this morning.
I thought it might be the thermostat not working but it does turn the blower on and off when you turn the dial on the thermostat face.
He came to the conclusion it might be the zone valve not working.
When hubby gets home, he can move the switch on that valve, from auto to manual and see if that makes any difference.
The man told me all that would need replacing is the green top half of that valve. The rest would be able to stay in place.
Everything was fine till sometime yesterday. The thermostat was controling things.
It was put together by a man who does know plumbing and electric from working many years in the trade.
Question is..... has anyone had a zone valve problem of any kind ?
