    I've made my heating system worse!

    Hi all I have an issue with a couple of radiators that I'm hoping I can get some expert eyes on to help diagnose. I recently drained down the heating system, fitted some TRVs and then refilled and since then have two problem rads. They are both in a single storey extension to the side of the...

    Constant Air in all radiators made worse since system flush and tank clean.

    Hi All, I've recently cleaned out my fathers central heating header tank in the loft because it had about 2" of sludge at the base of it, it wasn't that deep before I added the Senitel X400 system restorer, so I presume further crap had found it's way back up to the tank? I'm getting a huge...

    Advice needed : Boiler safe to use in short term?

    Hi, So I've got a Valiant boiler less than 12 months old that seems to be dripping at a very slow rate (I've put a bucket there and it will take many days to fill at current rate). It only leaks when the heating is on, the pressure is normal and the heating works fine. I've got Valiant...

    TRV used on both sides of rads???

    I went to a property (I should say mansion - 5 floors) and every single rad had a TRV on either side. One side had the stat head and the other was capped off. Isn't this bad practice? How are you going to balance the system with all valves fully open? Shouldn't one be a lockshield?

    Cold gas cylinder performance getting worse or is it me ?

    Is it me but are gas cylinder performance when they are freezing cold getting worse and worse ? Both my SF2's don't have a big enough flame to solder 22 until they've been warmed up for 5-10 mins on a radiator. Can't be a fault with my SF2's as they are fine once the cylinders warm up ?

    Toilet leaking from base - and worse if dishwasher is on!

    Hi All I have moved into my first home with my wife. We have a toilet which leaks from from a specific point at the base after flushing. I *think* the water is fresh. The amount that leaks ranges from barely visible, to a patch about palm-size. The latter seems to happen if something else in...
