We also had a problem with them sticking. Boxt said they'd pay for their replacement,

Yes, when I had the boiler changed, I had all rad valves changed at the same time.

My latest update on this saga is that Boxt have asked me to find a local trusted heating engineer for a quote to fix this issue (as they can't find someone available themselves). Local heating engineer came round yesterday. He said: 1: As many people on this thread are saying, that a flow...

The pump is within the WB boiler itself. There are no LEDs on the boiler, just a single light.

Have had a third party heating engineer pop round to investigate plus also been in touch with Gledhill Technical Support. Both have said exactly what you have said. Many thanks! Out of interest, why would a flow valve be on the return, rather than the feed into the cylinder coil?

Bit of an update. Spoke to one of the experienced Engineers who works for Boxt and he is convinced that the noise is to do with the zone valves (although he hasn't seen the setup). He saw the video and is 100% sure that by changing both valves and heads, the problem should go away. So, we are...

Been flushed through plus system is new from Feb 2025. Also, would have been drained when recent cylinder was installed 2 weeks ago.

I know this is an old thread but did you ever find out what the issue was and what was the fix?

Sorry, can't attach video as file too big

Making me think that the problem is something else

Strange that it took 6 months for noise to occur on original cylinder and only a couple of weeks to occur on the new cylinder. Will attach video below in this thread.

Thank you. That's very interesting and helpful. Yes, the first cylinder was a Gledhill. Not sure about the second one. I'm guessing it is as well. Not sure if this is relevant but the original was green and the new one is blue. So when you say "It probably needs a valve on the return to...

Hi All, Had my old Baxi Bermuda back boiler system completely replaced with Boxt in Feb this year. Had a conventional Worcester Bosch Grenstar Ri fitted with new cylinder and new rad TRVs and piping etc. All was good until Sept when we were woken when the hot water heating came on in the...

It is a Gledhill cylinder, vented to loft cold tank (450x1050).

Ok, so the Boxt appointed engineer came out. Good bloke who carried out a thorough investigation. Upshot was it was the coil pipe inside the hot water cylinder come loose. Of course, no way to fix that other than to replace the whole cylinder. He said he'd only ever seen that issue once. I'm...
