    Rough cost of wet under floor heating

    the room is 15x10 but you have not stated if that is wall to wall or unit to unit. Reason I ask is this kind of installation is not worth installing under units/appliances making the rooms heated surface area smaller and cheaper. Like agile says It's an expensive installation when a radiator...

    Increasing Pump Head

    But it will get hot all over the surface area of the radiator and that was one of the questions that was asked. How would you get the bottom of the rad hot because that has always worked for me when balancing a system, unless their is a problem with the pipework or a build up of sludge in the...

    Increasing Pump Head

    combi hot water flow problem

    check that the cold water is flowing into the boiler, it may have been turned off by an isolation valve or in some cases I have found that if the filling loop has one end still open then it will not allow the hot to flow. No doubt someone will ridicule me and pass this off as nonsense but hey...

    Keep having to use the filling loop - Microgenus 27 MFFI

    I would let your central heating get to temperature and then turn the boiler off. Open the hot tap and see if the water gets hotter as its running. If it does then your heat exchange is passing the heating circuit into the hot water chamber and your pressure would drop. Or turn off the towns...
