Hi I'm having a few problems with my hot and cold water, and a few concerns about my hot water cylinder, this seems to be the best place for advice, so...
Basically we moved in a couple of months ago into a two bedroom house, which has a ground floor, first floor, and a second floor. The boiler is located in the ground floor kitchen, and the hot water cylinder is located in our bedroom on the very top floor. We have a wet room on the ground floor, and a bath and shower on the first floor.
First problem, whenever we run any of the hot taps there is odd noise that comes from the cylinder, like a short grumble, and every so often a long and loud grumble. It's so loud that you can hear it from our garden.
Second problem, the hot and cold taps spit every so often and sometimes it burns my skin, now - I have tested the temperature and adjusted it on the cylinder, which reads 60-65c. But it feels SO hot.
Third problem, the shower in the ground floor wet room has hardly any pressure in the hot water, it's very slow. This also happens in the upstairs shower. So we use the bath, but it spits out very hot water.
I hope I have given enough detail.
Thank you,
Jason
