Did not expect to get a email demonstrating US levels of conspiracy stupidity from a UK DIY forum when I got up this morning. Impressive. I'd suggest you take a look at the number of flag shaggers vs counter-protestors at ALL of the recent racist turn-outs. Might make the Makerfield result a bit...

Warmer.

The opposite pipes are warm to the touch, certainly not cold. The valve taps are correctly aligned, and all the pipes are copper. I'll have to take a look at the filter tomorrow. Cheers :)

Hiya, OK, I've measured the flow and return pipes as requested ;D Flow and return gets me this (this is over a full anti-cycle); Outflow pipe 30 to 87.7 (degC) Return pipe 25.5 to 27.9 (degC) The inlet pipes to the radiators that I believe must be first in line I can't hold on to so they're...

Central Heating advice? First request I've had for flow and return temps, and having a day job means I can't conjure them up instantaneously. I've also explained that I cannot tell you if the filter has been cleaned. Fair enough.

Can't give you a figure on the return I'm afraid, but the return pipe is pretty cool to the touch. The boiler itself reports the flow gets down to 30degC on the front panel, which could well be right. Feels colder than that tbh. Don't know if anyone cleaned the return filter - a filter was...

OK, at the risk of igniting further conflict I'm gonna update this thread... Forget the hot water bit, it's a red herring. I've actually cut two rads out of the system that were badly placed and existed on their own little loop that just wasn't working. The situation with the CH remains the...

OK, thread revival time! Three people have had a look and say the boiler is AOK. So the diagnosis was that it was blocked and a powerflush *may* fix it. It didn't :( The water in it was appalling though. Anyway, now it seems our choices are start pulling up the floors to find the blockage or...

Apparent infighting aside, thanks so far! ;D Just an update, I went and looked at the boiler for a time and the flame is only on until the heat reaches 80 and it shuts off pretty much immediately. Then it seems to naturally fall back to 40. Does this alter any diagnosis?

Hi, As title, and I'm positive it was far better last year... So I've had the CH on all day, set to manual and with a target temp of 20degC. It's currently 18degC in the room that I have the thermostat in and has been for ages. The controller (Center 7 day programmable) has the flame indicator...

Thanks mate. I was afraid of that, shame as it appears to be high quality (only high quality thing the previous owners appear to have used :D).

Hi all - seems like the place to ask this after some googling :D Planning to lay the above on current floorboards. I've read around here and it appears that laying it floating and PVA glued is fine so I'm happy going that way. Couple of questions though (which may be daft). It's currently...
