I had a leak on my heating system, lost quite a lot of water. After repair and refill I can no longer get hot water. Do I have an air lock or problems with my actuator? I have a Drayton can this be manually operated. Thanks Dave.
No hot water on conventional boiler system.

possibly
another possibility
yet another possibility
but not having a crystal ball I dont know what boiler or system you have.
Hi it is a conventional system, and it is a Glowworm micron boiler, further, today I had to check system. Swithed off boiler and drained, refilled, now boiler only comes on then goes off, only comes on after turning thermo up, then it goes off again?

Hi yes I did bleed the pump?
Check that your feed and expansion tank has water in it.

Can you give more detail. Eg. Why and how did you have to check system. Was there a reason for draining and refilling. What do you mean by "only comes on then goes off"

Hi
The initial problem was a leaking joint on a heating pipe, I switched off water, drained made repair and refilled, then found the hot water did not come on.
I had to recheck the repair, so switched off electric to boiler, switched off water drained again and checked repair. Repair is fine. After switching everything back on and refilling, boiler would only fire up for a few moments then go off, I could switch it back on by turning the thermo up, but it would only stay on for a few moments, now it will not come on at all. I am baffled?
Thanks will do.
