Hi there OK, the pipework is pretty much like this... I can confirm there are no air release vents on the pipework, either manual or otherwise. The engineer is coming back out tomorrow evening for another look at the system so hopefully can shed a bit more light.

Thanks for this, will do. I'll take another look tonight... every time I try and get my head around the way the piping works, I seem to get more confused! But I now it shouldn't be that difficult. While I'm up in the loft, to kill two birds with one stone, anything else I should look for or...

Hi guys As requested, I've attached some images below of the setup in the airing cupboard. Ignore all the brown plastic piping, that's just the shower pump plumbing. You can't see this cos the airing cupboard shelves etc are in way, but the pipe leading into top of pump boiler goes...

Pics of central heating system

Hi there I've had another look, but there's definitely not an auto or manual air vent on the pipework. Any other ideas guys? Is it reasonable to assume that my 3 noise issues are all related? Someone at work just mentioned "pumping over" and "see sawing" to me - I checked the FAQ on...

Hi there No, all rads are the usual in and out of bottom on opposite sides. Thanks,

I had a look at a photo of one to be sure... nope, I don't think it has one

Hi Thanks for reply. I have bled the rads with the system off, no difference. I'm not sure what or where an auto air vent is... I don't think it has one on the system. There's a vent pipe which goes out from the pump inlet feed pipe and up into the loft and up and over in a big loop...

Hi all, I have a query that may or may not be a major problem but I'd very much appreciate some expert advice to be sure. I recently had my central heating boiler replaced. As it was previously an old gravity fed system it was also converted to fully pumped with the pump and electrics...

Hi there Just wondering whether you managed to sort our your problem? I've got exactly the same issues with my shower! Thanks, Dean
