I do not believe I am on the wrong site and as mentioned before, we all have free agency. If this thread does not interest, there is no need to be here.
This is a positive, educational thread. Negativity and divisiveness is not welcome in my space.
I thank you all for respecting the tenet of...
Thank you for this, Harry.
Does magnetite only form in the heat exchanger or other parts of the boiler, too? If the contractor does not give the system a thorough flush, and does not add a filter and inhibitor (simply only replaces the heat exchanger), how long do you give this new heat...
There seems to be a real issue with my interest in this topic. This site is for people who are interested in learning- otherwise it would not exist. If you are not interested in this topic and do not want to read up on it, there's no need to be on this thread.
I was thinking about when this issue started. Throughout the seven month period with the new pump the weather was warmer. Only the hot water was on for thirty minutes every morning. It is since the weather has got colder and the heating has been switched on, too, that the boiler has started...
I was very grateful to JonathanM for sticking up for me. He understood why I was here and my purpose and was very respectful towards me and one of the first responders who provided helpful assistance. I also appreciated your very detailed response MeldrewsMate which I have found immensely...

Thank you for the information about the low flow. It's very helpful.
I think the challenge is that, as an example, other than the pump being checked on the tradesman's recent visit when the boiler issue started, no other checks were carried out. In and out. Less than 10 mins. Which means none of the observations I've catalogued have been noted and none of the...
Good morning all.
I think what is not being understood is that because of inattentive workmanship on the third party's side my time and energy is being consumed chasing up bad advice, followed by bad work, followed by more costs to the landlord because of the bad advice and bad work.

Good morning MeldrewsMate,
Thank you for this very detailed response, it's very welcome and I know it would have taken time to write.
I am not a professional tradesman or even an amateur one, just to assure you that nothing is being touched by myself or anyone else other than a tradesperson...
Good morning Harry, the list of symptoms is unfortunately not being taken into consideration. The most recent experience is of this past week when the junior contractor came out. This has unfortunately become my problem. I would like it not to be.
