tell us the make and model of your boiler

how old is the boiler and the rest of the system?

is it pressurised or does it have a feed and expansion tank in the loft? Is there a pressure gauge and what does it read?

how hot is the water from the taps?

when you bleed the radiators, what comes out?
what colour is the water?

what country are you in?
