I've just moved into a new property in Dorking and I'm having difficulties with the Central Heating and wondered if I'm missing anything to get it going. Any help would be appreciated before I have to call someone out!!
The Potterton Netaheat Electric 16-22 fires up fine for the Hotwater (using timer and when over ridden) but we're not getting any heat from the radiators when it's on.
The thermostat is on max calling from heat, all the radiators are fully on (bled them to see if any air is in system - there wasn't). In the loft the pipes either side of the pump (a Grundfos) get very hot although I can't hear the pump on (are they normally very quiet?). There appears to be two 2 way valves (guessing one for CH and one for HW).
By moving the valve from Auto to manual I can get one radiator (the one nearest to the pump) a little warm but nothing else.
Not sure if the pump or valve is working properly or if I'm missing anything.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated since it's starting to get a little colder now!
Many thanks
