I have a Worcester Greenstar gas boiler circa 2017. There has been a noise coming from the boiler which resembles running water, I have checked the system pressure at 1.5bar and the relief valve but the noise persists unless a hot water tap in the house is opened then it stops for a period of time before restarting. I was wondering if it is something to do with the hot water store. I have had the boiler serviced every year since new but no heating engineer has done anything with the store which appears to have a Schraeder valve fitted. Can anyone help me trace the source of this noise as it can be heard in the house, the boiler is located in the integral garage.
 
Hello!
There may be air in the heating system, you need to bleed the system, bleed the air
if you have a schrader valve it may be leaking air if broken or damaged

Thank you for reply. I have isolated the noise to the hot water circuit in the boiler. Nevertheless the radiator system has been bled with no air evident and the heating system is not usually running when the noise is evident which is normally overnight. I would be grateful for any other pointers.

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
