    Vented to Unvented

    Ok thanks for the reply's. looks like an unvented system is out of the question however, what about a vented thermal store? Would it be a big problem if the feed was only 15mm?

    Banging, Balancing & 3 way valves??

    Thanks for the reply. I have read quite a lot on this forum about balancing the system, so I shall give it a try first. I have noticed that the lockshield on the bathroom rad does not seem to be adjustable, it looks a bit different to the others. As if it has another bit added to the top.
