So, bleeding each rad downstairs the trv pipe instantly gets hot and warms up the rad. I don't understand why this is working?

Ok, update. So the rads in the upstairs are warm. The trv pipe on each rad is hot whilst the lockshield pipe is cold...in all upstairs rads. The downstairs rads are completely cold. Drained, Added x800, drained added x400 No other bleed points. All rads spout water when they are bled as well...

ok, update II turned off all RADs except bathroom which is where the water cylinder sits. turned on heating, no change. opened/closed RAD, no change. the pipe with the TRV is hot, but the rest of the radiator is cold / luke warm. started to bleed the RAD, now heats up top half but bottom...

Thanks, Lightning - I'll try that. Terry, yes, the hot water cylinder is hot and there is hot water coming out from top pipe and the two side pipes. This 15mm pipe (blue line in pic) is cold so I'm guessing this is the rads pipe? all other pipes from boiler to cylinder are hot.

Ok, update. 1. Bleed pump - done, water no air 2. Clean f&e tank - used sentinal cleaner 3. Sort out wiring on cylinder - rewired, after creating a short. So I have hot water, yay! However still no radiator. If I turn everything off and on again, boiler fires up, makes a rumble noise and...

Thanks all, really appreciate the help

Hi The hinge on this window is broken. Does anyone know how to remove this hinge? It has these insert screws with just a hole. I've tried hex, flat, Phillips but nothing catches onto these.

Got it, let me check this in the morning. The f&e tank is full. 1. Bleed pump 2. Clean f&e tank 3. Sort out wiring on cylinder Thanks for your help at this late time. I really appreciate it.

That's, right the boiler lights up and then turns off. Why would it turn off unless it senses that the water is hot? The rads were getting warm at the top, bottom cold. So thought I'd flush out the crud - they are over 20years old. What part does the f&e tank play? If it is circulation, any...

I've bled the rads and top of the cylinder not the pump. The pipe to and from the pump is v. hot. Yes there is a small tank in the loft on top of the larger tank.

Yes, there are three settings on the pump | || |||, it is currently on |||

Hi All, Hoping someone might be able to solve this conundrum. I have a hot water cylinder with a boiler. I recently drained the system and washed out the radiators. I have no hot water and no heating. The boiler fires up, the 2x two port valves turn the valve to their open position. The...

Just for anyone's reference - this is not doable as the arch transfers its weight onto the section therefore the recommendation is not to cut it.

Anyone have any idea on whether it would be safe to cut out a section of the front wall in an archway to insert one of these letterbox options? Veritcal: http://www.lettasafe.co.uk/16/LS17/highway-through-wall-letter-chute/product.php Horizontal...

Thank you - I'll have a read and decide if it's a diy or professional job.

Ahh!? - how can I be sure and costs?

All done - I thought the same as well - the thicker pin is for another type of fitting Although it seems lose, it is sealed and running fine. Had a f.75 error, changed the pump and was resolved - however noticed that the Pressure was building consistently to more than 3 bar and staying in...

I am replacing the orange pressure sensor on the Vaillant Ecotec Plus 824 with the new black pressure sensor, however the fitment seems much too loose on the black pressure sensor. The black pressure sensor has come with a thin locking pin, the washer, the sensor and another thicker locking...
