Firstly many many thanks for the responses. I didn't get an email saying I had more replies so its taken a while to respond.
The brass thing doesn't have any internals. I took it off as I didn't really know what it was for (why would you have that?) and its just a tube with a bleed vent in it.
I agree, if I could get someone in I would. Weve had 2 guys round since we moved in and neither wants to touch it, the last one telling me so as he said there was a lot of potential for it to make no difference and costa lot and hence make me an unhappy customer. I appreciated his honesty. The first guy (recommended, whole family uses him etc etc) I lost confidence in.
I think just relocating the fed and vent will solve most of the problems so ill look into that first as the cwf if defianteley blocked / restricted as it comes into the boiler return. Thank you for the suggestions.
two questions I have are why put the "u" in the feed pipe? and why do they have to be so close together?i imagine its to aid filling of the loop with reduced potential for airlocks? or is it to keep the pressure similar between the two points?
Again many thanks for the help.
