Hello All I have just had a new radiator replaced due to rust and a leak, since then I have bled all other rads and to be fair most of the radiators are getting very hot, in fact i had a thermostat fitted to the new one as its in the back of the house and being closest to the boiler it has...

Yeah, I should have seen that sooner but I was convinced it was on the boiler due to previous pressure problems, guess I learnt a lesson here though as I knew that rad was on it's way out. Thank you guys anyway!

Found the leak, it's on the old rad in the utility room, the bottom corner has rusted and theres definitely some wet there so gonna get onto a mate now to see if he can replace that for me Thanks all

Solved!(Next post) Hi Dilalio, No all floors are concrete and I have traced the visible pipes around and there are no signs of a leak, also there are no signs in the ceilings. Although they sound simple enough, I'm a bit clueless when with your other suggestions as i've never done a lot with the...

Solved! (2 posts down) Hi Gigz, 1- there was a pipe until somebody stole it! now its just a hole in the wall but the snapped pipe edge is there so if anything you'd see a leak more clearly against the wall, it was a bit mucky but there appeared to only be a bit of condensation there so I guess...

That's the problem Agile I had two plumbers out to question why the pressure is dropping and none had any idea, one told me that the flexi pipe should not have been left in place and suggested there was likely a leak somewhere yet in 4-5 years I have seen no constant leak, I even had floorboards...

Thanks Tony I'll look into that. When you say the leaking should have been fixed do you mean the leak from the handle on the flexi pipe? it only happens for about 2-3 secs whilst adding pressure, the leak on the valve was fixed same day! Regarding servicing it was not something I was aware...

Hi I know these boilers aren't great but I had a good run with mine, until now that is. When the hot tap or shower is on the boiler kicks in, often later than the 3 seconds stated in the handbook, it runs for 30-60 secs and then cuts out, it can then be about another 30-60 secs before it...
