Help folks!I
I changed both my bathroom and ensuite rads for towel rads adjusting the pipes so the system was drained down.
Once completed inhibitor was added and the system refilled and bled. No drama.
Now when the central heating is on the pipes under the floorboards above the boiler make gurgling, knocking noises. This starts a few minutes after the boilers been running, lasts for about 5 minutes then calms down. I also had one cold rad, not the ones I fitted. The noise then can be heard occassionally.
Heres what I've done,
Bled the pump for air - none there but I did hear some slight gurgling noises from the hwsc and this evening a little clicking from the two port mid position valve. Hot water is working ok so is this related or is that about to fail?
Checked the f&e tank which was full.
Bled all the rads, no air but good water pressure.
Turned all rads off at the trvs which forced flow to the cold rad. Now all are hot.
The boiler is runing quietly.
The system is an open vented, ideal icos boiler y plan. I'm thinking my next move will be a system flush.
Can anyone give me some advice, help please?
