    Finding a leak in a Central Heating System.

    Thank you both for the advice - although I'm not sure what 'expansion vessel issues' are I will try and research it. Thanks again for your time and for trying to help me.

    Finding a leak in a Central Heating System.

    To use my Gas Central Heating I have to top up the system to 2 bar. (any less and the pipes bang and the pressure needle jumps around). The boiler fires up and the radiators heat up as they should. The pressure gauge on the boiler touches the red when the system is fully warmed up and then...

    Boiler Clunking and Rads Cooling.

    Some Rads Have Stopped Working.

    Thanks for your reply. I have bled them but they seem ok in that department as there was no air escaping. Also the TRV pins are free. My reluctance to shut all the rads down is that following the fitting of the new boiler it literally took weeks of trial and error to get all of the rads...

    Some Rads Have Stopped Working.

    Hi, 2 years ago I had a garage conversion done which involved adding 4 new radiators to the system and also having a new boiler fitted. Although balancing all the radiators on the full system took an age to do everything did eventually work well. Unfortunately now 1 of these rads is...
