Heating problem

Any ideas? Really? Any?

Ok then, use these: .

Lots of them. Like . . . . . . . . . . . . .

That'll help.

 

I thought I was bad,man I feel good!!!!!

 

What ever happened to commas, and full stops . in punctuation - modern education for you I suppose. Unless the OP is a legal beagle. Can you re-post that lot so we can follow it, thank you!

 

Difficult to understand that post, one question did you put the new pump on the correct way? on the return pointing towards the boiler.

 

Hi. Yes, pump is correct, thanks.


(You're going to get cross with me now, aren't you... )

 

Ok go through your symptoms/problem again please, but try and make it make a bit of sense as Im not totally sure what the problem is apart from the system is not doing what the system used to do before you played with it.

 

it will be air locked.do the pipes run down the wall to feed rads from above. are there any d.o.c on rads or pipework to rads. if so you may be able remove it this way.turn on heating till it gets warm turn off warm rads connect a hose pipe to d.o.c.check which pipe is getting warm to each rad down stairs turn this one off to stop water getting into rad open other valve on other side of rad open d.o.c wait hot water passes through hose then turn off d.o.c and valve.repeat this to each cold rad then open all rads and fire up ch.if no d.o.c you could turn off rad loosen valve on cold pipe to rad place bowl under valve open valve till hot water come through then close valve do this to each cold rad

 

I think we should leave David and Howd to sort this out, they seem to understand each other.

 

Just a minor point, and I'm not sure I'm right on this, but trying to clear the air lock with the boiler running would cause the air to expand and make it more difficult to clear, wouldn't it?

I would have thought keeping the system cold would be better. But then, without the benefit of being able to feel the pipes / radiators getting hot, I suppose it's more difficult to know if the problem has cleared or moved.

 

should have wrote turn on heating till it gets warm then turn off warm rads and heating

 

So that's how David and Howd understand each other - they have Mosaix to translate .

This is chust gonna work awesomely.

 

your welcome
