is the auto air vent open / working ?

 

[swindontony]

Yes it is, its a relatively new one as well. I have emptied the system totally in the last couple of weeks and refilled, venting all the radiators as well.

this is probably something simple that we are both overlooking

can't see the wood for the trees

Thanks anyway for your help, I have a neighbour coming over to have a look this evening, he's a plumber, maybe he will have a good idea about whats wrong.

 

[kevplumb]

I thought I would just let everyone know the outcome of the problem I posted. The plumber came in and first fitted a brand new pump to see if it would help, but when he realised that wasnt the problem he cut a section of pipe from the pump to the boiler and hey presto it was totally clogged. He put back my old pump on and refitted a new section of pipe. Nice and warm now and looking forward to a nice hot bath.
