Sorry, first time i've done this. You want a sketch of the system, as in where the pipes go, where rads are, etc? I'm assuming you dont want a sketch of my fire!

What info do you need on the system? The prev owners decided to laminate every room so looking under the floor boards will take a while. The main thing i want to know is the procedure for diagnosing the radiators i have to keep bleeding, air is getting in, where is usual place to start...

Also there seems to be a ticking / clicking / banging noise under the floor in one place, is this normal?

Hi all, We have recently moved house, went from a flat to a semi, flat had a combi boiler, house has an older back boiler system. It was fitted in 1998 and is a baxi system with tank in loft, cylinder in bedroom, boiler behind fire. I have drained the system, used sludge remover, left...

Anyone else have any input before i go for one of the above? Thanks.

Hugh, thats what i was thinking, we had the system flushed & the boiler serviced, the engineer said it was in perfect condition, apart from a gas valve was faulty & was using 20(not sure of unit) of gas, when optimum was 17? this is being replaced. How exactly is the sundial system fitted...

Ah, i didnt see that. I cant find a stat on the boiler anywhere? Must be one somewhere though to regulate the water temp? It is a gravity fed system, boiler behind the fire with pump next to it, large tank in bedroom, smaller tank in loft.

Thanks, that pack actually contains a cylinder stat, which either i'm looking in the worng place, too stupid to find, or it doesnt have one? Our hot water just seems to keep heating, it gets absoloutly scalding after a while (obv have to have HW on to have CH on), but shouldnt there be some...

Hi all. We have recently moved into a house that has a Baxi back boiler fitted in 1998, and we would like a bit more control over the room temperature. We currently have a vintage Honeywell T6060 analogue wall thermostat which is bang in the middle of the wall, we would like to move the...

Sorry, i have just had someone to look at it. The reason i was asking on here was to find out if there were any common problems to help figure out what could be wrong. I have been advised that i need to change the heat exchanger, part number 0002SCA05005/0, could you reccomend me the best...

All of them, very annoying!

Even slightly more than a trickle causes the water to go cold, doesnt have to be fully open, if i turn the tap on, i have to turn it back to a trickle just to keep the water hot. Flowrate, is that exiting the tap? Temperature, at what point? Thanks very much.

Hi all, over the last two years the boiler has started playing up, after reading up about them, i was suprised it had lasted this long. So far i have had the three way valve replaced, and more recently the pressure releif valve. Now we have fitted some new taps (strange coinkydink) but the...
