Following on from yesterdays thread...//www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=108402&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0...as you'll read I've successfully bled my CH pump and radiators now get nice 'n hot...thanks Hi-Spec.
However I now don't have any hot water at my taps. The boiler will fire up but after a minute or two it shuts down, with no heat in the pipes around the cylinder. The pipe that passes through the CH pump in the boiler gets hot until it disappears under the floor, and a pipe I assume is the hot feed to the cylinder is hot where it exits the boiler but is cold where it begins its ascent to the cylinder.
Its a 15yr old boiler, with a vented CH system. I'm not familiar with how these things are plumbed so not sure if it could be related to air in my CH system or a 3 way valve is stuck. (Don't even know if I have one...if there is then its below the floorboards...
Thanks for any help.
