    Blocked Cold Feed?

    thanks guys, assuming that the blockage is where the f&e comes down and meets the circulating pipes, (I think they are 28mm to the coil and boiler) I will have to drain down the whole system? When the f&e pipe comes down it has an elbow just higher than the cylinder before it drops to meet...

    Silicone sealant

    Why are you doing a second app?I find it easier to make sure I fill with Silicone fully the first time. The MI says that its tack free in 10mins, so should be OK, leaving it till tomorrow will mean the first and second app would be dry, IMHO
