Hey,
Our ch is heating water and upstairs rads, but not downstairs. I've bled all rads and pump. The pump itself is red hot and makes a whirring then clicking sound. I've took the screw cap off and the internal motor thing can be turned with no issues. (it's this which is whirring then stopping).
I've noticed that the vent pipe in the loft isn't feeding into the eh header tank, it looks like someone moved it precisiously and now the pipe is above the tank but pointing outside of it( about 5 cm away, pointing down, towards the floor of the loft).
Can this be affecting the cold water feed to the pump? We had our pump replaced twice over the last year cos of this issue and the issue isn't going away, and I don't want to have to fork out for another pump if the issue is coming from something else.
Any ideas folks? I've search these forums and tried all the other tricks, but I'm stuck now!
Cheers
