I'll try but it's very hard as it's so random and intermittent. I would literally have to sit next to the radiator in silence for hours to catch it :( The only pipework that may have been changed was external i.e the thin pipe that immediately connects to the radiator. We had a system that...

Not enough pings so I can't decipher what they're saying :LOL: May need to bring out the ouija board. I think they are these ones https://www.screwfix.com/p/pegler-terrier-terrier-3-white-angled-thermostatic-trv-lockshield-15mm-x-1-2-/2052v

But the heating is off? Also I've turned the valve to the max (5) and to the lowest (frost protection) and we still were hearing the sounds. If it is the bracket, does that mean I need someone to come in and take it off to install etc? :(

Thanks. I tried looking at the back but can't get a good view as we have a window board leaning slightly over. I forgot to mention though that these radiators are old and we've never had this issue before in 9 years living here. Only start noticing it after the TRV valve installation. The...

We recently had our old system fed tank changed to a condensing boiler. All the radiators in the house for a total of 5 also had TRVs installed. Inhibitor was added and all radiators bleed done by professionals. Everything working fine. However, we’ve noticed that the radiator in our living...

Thank you, that's what I gathered. Yes we have hard water here so thanks for the very important tip there, although I am thinking of getting a water softener. Glad it doesn't affect the heating. I think I will have it off then as it doesn't make sense for me.

So as I understand Comfort Mode sort of intermittently keeps the boiler ticking in the background so that I have access to hot water faster, as opposed to heat-on-demand but there may be extra fuel costs with this. Some articles also mention about heating too but it's not very clear. I don't...

Both pipe above the boiler do not warm up when turning on the boiler on (an hour) :( Yes everything worked fine from day 1 in November up until last week. I spoke to the Nest engineer to trouble shoot some things over the phone and he can't see anything wrong with it. I can turn on the boiler...

Thanks for this! Sounds like the prices aren't too bad then, even very reasonable. That gives me a bit more faith to make the decision if I do. I turned it on for 30 mins and neither of the two pipes underneath the boiler get warm from what I can feel. I forgot to check the two pipes above the...

The £3.3k is a good price then? What's the usual cost for this? Thanks. I think they said the would try but now that I'm thinking about it, perhaps the WB's own wireless thermostat and app would be just as good. So maybe it wouldn't make sense to wire the Nest. Of course, I'd just wasted a...

My partner and I live in a small 2 bed, semi-detached house roughly 600+ square feet. Based in West London. No plans on having children so it'll just be us but we may (i.e not anytime soon, just on the off chance if circumstances are right) decide to extend kitchen/convert loft. The boiler...

Wohoo, I replaced it with a new switch and the light works now! Thank you all for your help. Not going to lie, I did felt a sense of accomplishment. I have two quick questions though as I feel I may have done bit of a botch job... 1) Look at this poorly drawn picture. A = what the ceiling...

Should I leave it exposed then? I mean it'll be under the cover but is that right?!

Forgot to ask, when I install the new one, should I cover the exposed wires with tape again like how it was initially?

Thanks, I will buy the new one and then report back (y)

Thanks for all the replies! I wasn't home yesterday so couldn't reply. Appreciate your response mate. That's encouraging to hear that it should be 'simple'. My one clicks and pulls fine, the issue is that it seems like the connection is 'off'; I need to pull the cord in some direction for the...

Hi all Have a look at at this video: https://streamable.com/txnuqr I changed all the bathroom lights to GU10 and this has been working fine for a few month except recently. Not sure if that makes any difference. Lately I have had to pull the light twice in quick succession (!) before it would...
