I get dramatic 'bloop-bloop' noises when DHW is on, then when heating's on you can hear air being dissipated through rads, then I bleed them until next time... System is inhibited (X100) and I added a couple of litres of X200 in system in case it was limescale (although we are in a soft water...

Sentinel X200 cured mine.

Been there, but fixed now. Merry Xmas!

Heard back from Grant. For the archives, the pressure switch disappeared from 2014 combis onwards when the existing 12 litre expansion vessel was replaced with a 24-litre one. If you have an external pressure vessel to supplement the 12 litre one for earlier combis, the switch can be capped.

All done, thank you, and I now have heating and water. I had ordered a switch prior to our conversation, but it hasn't shown up in post yet, so happy to bypass it for time being. Spoke to Grant tech this morning and advisor confirmed it'll work but wasn't keen on bypassing; he said if the...

If I just snip the wires a couple of inches from the switch, bare back and connect together, I take it that would work too? I'm just trying to avoid taking the board to bits if I don't need to.

Thanks for that. Could I leave the old switch in, cut the wires and bypass the board?

But it isn't! The low pressure LED's flashing but water pressure is steady at one bar. No CH or hot water. Is there a pressure switch somewhere?

I'll give space to the experts. I'm thinking pump's not up to it, even boiler.

Hmmm, did it ever work okay?

Think the other rads need to be turned down. Turn hottest down a turn, then next hottest and so on. When you get close, eg your cold rad's warming up, adjust 1/2 to 1/4. This is an oversimplification of balancing, but it'll get you in the right direction.

Are you bored?

Full of air?

Good spot, above, and 'Eco' is the factory default setting.

I'm no plumber but I guess the experts will want to know the model of boiler and whether it has pressure. Can you take a couple of pics and post?
