The old pump was set at 3 and so I've set the new one to the same. Today all the radiators are equally 'warm' at about 31C which is pretty poor. Tony, Yes I believe one benefit of using 8mm instead of 15mm is for Reduced heat loss, which is exactly the opposite of what I thought I was...

Lol!! :lol: Yes you're right about the rambling! I just wanted to get as much info in there as poss to give a good picture of what it is and what's already been done...I may have overdone it a little :) I know it could take 4 weeks before I'll know if the X400 actually does anything, but...
