Hi,
I am novice girly here, just looking for advice!!! For a couple of months my water has occassionally been boiling hot, even if I am sure I had not had the boiler on. Now I have returned from holiday and put the heating on and the boiler is making a strange banging noise (it sounded like a locomotive so it was quite rythmic!). I switched it off and the banging stopped only when I ran the bath and the water was scalding hot. What could be the problem? I have boiler that says (Wickes 3kv 240v Type pc 27) on the top on a silver thing, and my heating is from a oil storage tank in the garden. I moved into the house 6 months ago so not sure how old any of this stuff is. Oh and I can't check the oil in the garden tank as there's no gauge like I thought there might be??? Please advise ASAP before I start calling god knows who and paying out!!!!
