The only air vent i can see is the one near the HW Cylinder. I've just tried that and no air came out. I have a feeling its not air though as when the boiler is turned off you hear it bubble up the pipe. Thanks for your help. I'll leave it a while and see what happens then. Its due a service...

Thats what i thought. any ideas how to get rid of it please. Or will it go of its own accord as obviously i have drained the system down to fit the rad.

It sounds like its trickling in to the boiler for about 5 seconds after the boiler switches on and then goes away, then will only do it again when it switches back on again.

thanks. I needed that. :) Is the trickling water for a few seconds when the boiler turns on normal? does anyone know? Everything seems to work, i'm getting hot water and hot rads and now its not pumping over. Just hope i'm not masking another problem.

Just checked the H section with a fridge magnet. Its all i could find quickly. It would not stick or attract to anything in that area. I presume this is a good sign?

ok, i have been having more of a look at this. Here is a picture of the pump arrangement. the right hand pipe is the feed and the left the vent. This is the arrangement lower down. I have now managed to stop it pumping over. The vent pipe looked to be going downwards towards the...

I will take a picture and post tonight. the pump is indeed pumping downwards. But both the vent and feed run vertically up from the pump area. The vent pipe does rise continually up to above the F&E tank. I cannot see anywhere where air could get trapped in the vent pipe. I do not have a...

Thanks MM. I may have to try and post a couple of pictures. But the feed goes in to the top of the pump, with the pump flow away from the feed. The vent runs right next to the feed, I would say no more than 100mm apart. These two pipes are joint just above the pump. Therefore from your...

Hi all, I have an open vented pumped system, the boiler and HW cylinder were installed october 2009. I have recently drained down my system and replaced a radiator as the old one had seen better days. I have refilled and bled the system, no more air seems to be in the system. However...

Thanks TPT. Just working out the last few bits, cuts etc, to make sure I have enough tiles etc and I'll get back to you.

Thanks, not sure how much trim I need yet. One length may be enough, need to measure later. But will need 5m2 of tiles, trim, adhesive and grout. Not sure which of these to use either. Cheers Ads

Thanks TPT, That is cheaper than I have been quoted, but i guess depends on the delivery. Which would probably take it over the £20 a box I can get them for locally. Symptoms, Thanks for your advise. Only tiling up to around half the window height. All tiles in to corners are cuts except...

Thanks tpt. I have not bought the tiles yet, but it is the 200x100mm cream metro tiles that I was looking at. I think these are 8mm thick at the centre. Is it best to use a tile spacer next to the trim or not when doing these? Also is it best in the internal corners to scribe the tile to...

Hi all, I'm coming to the end of my kitchen renovation and just the tiling to do. I have decided to use the metro bevelled wall tiles. I ahve done some tiling before but not using bevelled tiles and not in brick bond effect. Can anyone give me any tips regarding the internal and external...

I have a vision of someone trying to put a terminal on a strand of wire wool now! :D

Cheers for the help guys. Will probably put some wire wool in first as this will also stop the silicone dropping out the back! :)

Thanks for your help. I will probaby go for the silicone. will rodents be able to eat through it i should I not worry as I have the hole cemented on the garage side? I had agreed to do it as I was putting the floorboards back down anyway. The guy who done the work is a friend of mine, so I...
