Firstly, sorry to be a bit stupid posting here with fully understanding what system I have.
I have cold water feed in the loft.
Tank in airing cupboard
Boiler in kitchen (approx 15yrs old)
Boiler operates hot water and heating independently via wall switch thing.
A week or so ago, I turned of cold water feed into house and drained hot water by running hot taps. Reason being had a leak on hot bath tap, only way to cut water to it was drain system. I also made sure heating and hot water was off during this time.
All is good, until last night. When hot water came on after a few mins strange hissing/gurgling noises heard coming from boiler. They subsided after about 10 seconds, then happened again. I turned off the hot water and continued to heat via the immersion heater upstairs. Do I have air in the system, how can I remedy? The hot water seems fine.. warms ok as I checked before turning immersion on. No sputtering from taps.
Heating... No problem here, the only minor this is that there is 1 particular radiator (top of stairs/landing) that needs bleeding possibly weekly as its half full of air. Is there another way of bleeding the heating system.
Sorry im vague about my system. Unsure how I tell what I have. Can get some photo's if necessary
Ta in advance
