my spacesaver 38 has been working fine for years but the last 2 months or so it has not been heating the radiators when you switch it on. it will light and then burn for 2 or 3 mins and then go out .we had a new zone valve actuator and a new thermocouple fitted 2 years ago. all the pipes around the actuator are hot but 'not the radiators .can you help please.
if the answer above hasnt worked do your radiators need bleeding?

I dont know your type of boiler or system, but it sounds like your 2 way valve. Does it have a lever on the side? If it does give it a push, does it now heat the other pipes? if it does the valve is shot. there are 2 ways of thinking is it mechanicley shot or is its electicaly shot, if by moving the lever it works, you can replace the gubbins with out distubing the plumbing
