Come to think of it, I don't think he's tested it. Reason is that if he had, then when we came back from work, it would have been extremely warm in the house due to CH being on, combined with hot weather. I'd really appreciate it if you can explain or maybe show me a diagram of what this...

I agree wholeheartedly, although I wouldn't say mad, I'd say he's a rip-off rogue trader. Hence my reasons to try and see if I could at least locate the cause of the problem.

He said he'll call back, but only if I pay him more money. I totally respect that people can make mistakes, but I hope you can understand, I'm not going to pay more money for his mistakes. I just wanted him to sort the problem out. Anyway I'll have to try and figure a way to find the cause...

no...no heat at all.

Hi, Thanks for your help. In answer to your questions: Pipes are plastic (15mm) Yes they've already been balanced by me - Rooms that are warmer than usual have valves less open and rooms which are colder have more valve open I don't know what you describe as a normal house, but this is a...

Hi everyone, This is my first post, so my apologies in advance, if my story is very long. Before the covid-19, we had some work done by a plumber in our room-in-roof. We had 2 radiators added to the existing CH system. The pipes were connected to one of our bedrooms. Because of covid-19 the...
