    Rad in bathroom not heating up

    No thermostatic, just lockshield at each end of the rad, I know one works because I refilled the rad through it. But interestingly, the one on the T side, when I had the rad off the wall, did not leak any water if it was 'open' or closed. Does this mean the lock shield has failed shut? Would...

    Potterton Puma 80e Combi heating not turning on in morning

    Hi, my Potterton Puma 80e Combi has developed a problem and i was hoping to get advice of what to do first. The heating does not turn on in the morning with the timer (or manually turning on constant) until I have run the hot tap. The tap runs, the boiler starts the hot water, then turn tap...
