Thanks for the replies. I'll try out the tests you mentioned. The pump was actually done by a plumber a month or so ago but he didn't flush the system as far as I am aware. The rads have been bled fully. The stat doesn't make any clicks when you move it as far as I am aware but I'll re-try it...

Hi, Hope someone could help. We are having problems with our CH in that when it comes on it doesn't reach the temperature as requested on the thermostat. Radiators will heat up for a while and then the boiler cuts out prior to the temperature actually getting to that set on the thermostat. It...

Hi, Thanks for the replies. I'll take the thing apart again today and check out the washer and plate and try the sealant this time. Fingers crossed. Thank you.

Hi, Many thanks for the replies. Hi John...I'll check out the inside of the cistern again. It did look very clean but I'll give it a wash out just in case. Hi Bahco..I'll see if I can find a larger metal washer and give that a go also. It seems that the leak though runs through the...

Hi, Hope someone could help me out. I have just replaced a Dudley S7B siphon in a close coupled toilet and have reconnected everything back but I am experiencing a very small leak just above the wingnuts that are clamping down the cistern. I purchased a new close-coupled kit as the old...
