Can anyone help me please. Since moving into my house (1900 victorian end terrace) I have had constant problems with my central heating. It's an old style stored hot water cylinder with CH expansion tank above it in the airing cupboard and cold water storage above that (still in airing cupboard, which is in the bathroom).
I've replaced the pump, which lies under the bath before the 3-way value. The boiler is downstairs in the kitchen. I've also change the 8mm microbore copper piping which fed the rads downstairs with 15mm plastic piping. When I switch on the CH, the rads upstairs get nice and hot but the 3 rads downstairs get fairly warm. The rad in the bathroom, which is the first one on the feed and return pipes always seems to get full of air, after about 15 minutes of the CH being on it requires a bleed.
Can any help please
Also would it be a good idea to move my cold water storage tank to the loft, would that increase the presure in my very old mixer shower
