I have recently moved into a 2 year old house. The boiler is controlled by an electronic timer programmer and there is a thermostat controller in the hallway. We leave the electronic programmer for the Central Heating "On" at all times and leave it to the thermostat to control when the boiler actually fires up to heat the radiators.
Our rooms are either freezing because the radiators don't come on or only for a short time or very occassionally the rooms are hot and the radiators scalding hot. Most times the hallway is chilly (certainly less that the low 20'sC that the thermostat is set at and need to turn the thermostat up to around 23 or 25C before the boiler gets signal to fire up. Sometimes you can turn the thermostat up as high as it goes (30C) and hear it clicking on but the boiler is not getting fired up. Other times with the radiators and rooms are piping hot when only set as low as 20C.
How can I check if this is a thermostat problem or possibly electronic programmer? We don't have any problems with the Hot Water.
Appreciate any advice given
