thanks for the advice. and yes its a joke isnt it? i have a feeling he wont agree to do any further work. he is actually a sub-contractor to the builder that i have employed to do the extension so it really lies with the builder to sort i guess as hes the person im paying. my thoughts are if the...

Exactly yet that swear blind im being ridiculous

thanks for the reply. That attached will hopefully show this mess a bit clearer for all. The ones that aren’t working as they should are mainly the last two rad on the first floor and the end one that drops to the ground floor (that one isn’t as bad)

So to update : I’ve today had the cylinder replaced and yes it was damaged so we have clean hot water in the hot taps and clean cold water in the cold! However we still have the ongoing issues with the heating to the extension. From having further checks I think the pipework is undersized and...

many thanks for the advice. the original plumbers have been back several times now and seem to be making things worse around the house! for example they came over the weekend to reconnect the new wc after they damaged the new flooring, they did it (or at least i was told they had) and so the...

Poor isn’t it? any ideas into the problem would be welcome. System ran fine before these mods

Ok so the larger of the two tanks is now empty and it appears that the pipe that connects to the cylinder is feeding hot water into the tank?? See attached pic that I’ve labelled the pipe. If anyone can offer any advice why this would happen please do.

Maybe this will help? Just drawn this out and currently have the cold taps on with the ball valve held up so I can see which pipe is letting the water in.

Here’s some more...
