Evening all. Been reading a lot of threads on here to try and find the cause of my issue, but they don't line up 100% with my issue.
My water tank in the loft is constantly overflowing. It feeds the hot water cylinder below. It has a new float and valve fitted. Also in the loft is the feed and expansion tank for the radiators. This is a smaller tank and the top is lower that the hot water cylinder header tank.
Now, all I've read suggests that the radiator f&e tank should be the one to overflow, any reason why it's the higher bigger hot water cylinder header tank which constantly overflows?
The hot water cylinder looks fairly old, but does have insulation factory fitted to it.
Currently I have tried the ball valve on the cylinder header tank and have emptied the water from it to see if it fills. Currently the f&e tank isn't dropping as fast as the overflow was, I haven't seen or heard it refill yet, it's been an hour.
Anything else I'm over looking?
