    Failed Motorised Valve

    To cut a long story short, the motorised valve on our CH system seems to have failed. Recently we've been having problems with it taking it's time to start, and then sometimes not coming on at all. Now it just won't come on. I did manage to get it to start pumping last night but then before bed...

    Central Heating - Pressure Rising

    Last night before going to bed I could hear a tapping sound coming from somewhere near the boiler, couldn't find anything though so I just put it down to the noise that the flue sometimes makes after having the heating on.
