gas ratio I cant quote exact figures at the moment as im at work, i did overlook and I can confirm they where fine in according to the boiler manual. In regards to the noise he suggested that the system needs to be cleaned. Hence i added fernox and ran the system for two weeks and then refilled...

Hey, the gas ratio has been checked and its correct, i recently flushed the system thinking their might be debrie etc. Iv since refilled the system and added inhibitor however, the noise is still their. Its only intermittant and doesnt happen all the time. Do you guys think its the main heat...

Right, CH was off i opened the hot water ran over to the boiler and turned the temp up on the hot water and guess what the vibration noise came back. Does this definately suggest that the boilers air/gas ratios are out?

A little more info to report: we have had the heating on today and with the hot water open at the tap i went over to boiler and turned the temperature up for the water and the boiler starting making a vibrating noise. I will try when the CH is off and report back.

Hey, i appreciate all the emails. If its a combustion problem should it not happen every time the central heating is on and the hot water is called for. The noise only occurs when the CH is on and it only last a short while. Also any idea what i should pay a Qualified Engineer to do a...

I dont think its the diverter valve, iv stood next to a couple of boilers and they dont make any such noise when the hot water is called for. definately something else. Is it worth a fresh flush, if yes whats the best procedure.

thanks for the reply, i thought i would further explain, the noise only last around 5seconds and then its gone, this only happens when i open the hot water tap and the CH is on. when the heating is off the boiler doesnt make any noise when the hot water is called for. Also it was...

Any ideas guys

Thanks for the reply, magnaclean fitted, waht can i do to eliminate possible crap in the main heat exchanger. Also do you guys know any engineers that can be recommended in the Midlands area to do the other checks. also what is the gas club thing, sorry new to the forum.

My boiler makes noise like as if a plane is taking off when hot water is turned on. This only happens when CH is on and temp is below 60degrees. the noise doesnt occur all the time, id say it happens 70% of the time. The boiler has been flushed with x200 on installation and then x100 was...
