New Central Heating keeps pumping
Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2010 3:42 am
Hi all,
I have a small question about newly installed central heating at my home. It works perfectly and I see when it starts heating up on the wireless thermostat’s monitor. However, the pump inside is always non-stop working. Once it starts heating up the water inside, it is quite normal and understandable that the pump is working. When I decrease the room temperature in the thermostat before going sleep, let say from 19 C to 16 C, it normally takes 2-3 hours to reach 16 C. However, the pump still keeps running during this 2-3 hours. I am wondering if this is due to wrong programming of the heating system? Can it be because of the outside temperature which is around -5 nowadays?
BTW: We have only central heating not boiler for hot water.
Thank you very much.
