    Hi all . Had a magnaclean fitted but need some pipe clips/ clamps that I can fit and screw on either side of the pipe as when taking the lid off the pipes twist a fair bit and make the joint at the boiler weep a little .

    Hi thanks . From what I gather that’s because the chemical in the x400 that holds the rubbish in suspension in the system water breaks down after that. .. maybe it’s also a safety thing (?)

    Underfloor heating not working.

    I had similar issues .one zone wouldn’t heat up even tho the return was warm. If your boiler is cycling like that it’s either a blockage or maybe airlock causing lack of flow .

    Boiler cover removal

    Cool Thank you .. what do you think the ball bearing rattling about noise could be ? Saying that I just went to the boiler and that is materially died down now , just the old little gritty type noise and the radiator the same ?!
