We have the above cooker that we purchased 2 years ago. The grill has always seemed to have an intermittant fault that is now a permanent one in that the grill won't stay lit. It fires and lights but as soon as you remove your finger from the button it goes out like there's no gas supply? Any...

Cold it seems to sit around 1.5 then when it fires up it pushes close to 3 before settling at just over 2. I've tried to release some pressure but it just seems to revert back to the about pressures??

After much checking I have now found the smallest of leaks coming from the top of the towel rail (now my wife realises how important it is for me to spend quality time on the toilet). I have replaced the leak and now not losing pressure anymore. Based on that and due to my banging pipe issue and...

Am I right in thinking that my PRV is the red knob? Mine has 3 bar written on it and an arrow telling you to turn it anti clockwise. There appears to be some play in the knob itself?

I placed a plastic bag over the end of the pipe prior to starting this post which I've just been out to check now and there is probably about a mug full of water in the bag so it is clearly discharging something?? My pressure gauge never runs over 1.5 bar and I have to add pressure almost every...

I clearly have a leak on my system as the boiler is losing pressure daily although not a massive amount. I've read somewhere that if water is coming out of the pipe that runs externally from the boiler then this could suggest an issue with the boiler's pressure valve. I've checked everywhere...

It now seems to holding at a steady 1.5 bar although I still have the banging pipes? Suppose I can't have everything can I?

I have recently bought a new fridge freezer so moved my old one into the garage. Due to the recent cold weather the temperature in my garage is lower than that of the thermostat so the fridge freezer shuts off and defrosts. I want to have 2 fridge freezers so is it possible to have some form of...

The heating came on tonight as timed and is running at a steady 1.5 bar so far? Going to monitor for a few days before I start searching for pressure valves etc?

Once the heating started the guage went up to just below 3 bar but then lowered slightly. I looked at it this morning when the heating had just fired up and it was showing 1.5 bar. As I said, no leaks that I can track down and I've had no leaks on the system before. Still also getting the...

I now have a new symptom. After bleeding and repressuring my system I set it to 1.5 bar. I've noticed that when the system is off the pressure gauge falls, sometimes to zero as though its lost all of its pressure. I've checked all of the rads and there are no leaks anywhere and the system still...

Yes I have TRV's and they are all fully open given the inclement weather. I think the only solution is to completely drain the whole system and re-pressurise it to see what happens then??

Bled it which didn't cure it. It only seems to be a pipe that runs underneath my daughter's room which is the room I removed and replaced the radiator in. It doesn't do it all the time but enough to disturb sleep. Is there any possibility the pipe is loose in its connection under the...

No, I shut off the water using the radiator valves and then covered them with end caps. I've now put the radiator back on and bled the individual rads but still the banging. Would too much pressure cause the banging as I've notice the pressure on my boiler is up around 2.5 instead of 1.5??

I have recently removed a radiator so that the room can be decorated. Throughout having this radiator off the heating system has still been functioning but the pipes seemed to have started banging. I have now put the radiator back on but the banging is still there and wakes my kids up in the...

Right I've worked out that my room thermostat definately works and I've not touched the flow dial on my boiler. My next point is on relation to my rad valves. They are currently all set on 3 (out of 5). Is this right or should they be higher/lower?

I have a Main 24 combi boiler. All my rads are fitted with regulator/thermostat valves. I also have a room thermostat in my hallway in between the doors to my living room and dining room. My questions are : 1) How do I know if my thermostat is working in conjunction with my boiler? 2) What...
