Sorry to dig up an older post but i would like to know if it would be ok to use an unswitched flex outlet FCU (like in the link below) to permanently hard wire a toothbrush charger inside a bathroom cabinet that would be in zone 3? Any advice would be appreciated...

if i leave the lockshields fully open then i think the upstairs rads will rob the rest of the system of heat but i'll give it a try! The boiler is making some popping type sounds much like a kettle boiling

Everything is exactly as you suggest, trv's except towel rad, lockshields balanced etc......think i will go for the larger pump. I have just discovered something that may be contributing to the problem but it may be a totally seperate issue......after reading about how to check for partially...

Yes the rads are all hot at the top but not at the bottom, only warm. Ah yes forgot to mention number of rads etc.....good point. There are a total of 8 rads, 4 up and 4 down. 2 of these are doubles downstairs and the rest singles. All are 600mm high except 1 tall designer. One rad is a 1200...

i think they are only warm at the bottom because i've starved them so much. I'm not sure how long the system has been installed as it was here when we moved in 4 years ago and has always had the problem, although my balancing has made it better than it was when we first moved in. Do you think...

they are all hot at the top but warm at the bottom. all the other rads will get hot at the bottom if i open the lockshields on them a bit more, i've had to close them all down to get the hallway rad hotter, if i don't starve the other rads then the hallway rad only gets warm. The pipe run to...

Many thanks for the speedy reply. I have bled all the rads but i thought they would be cool at the top if there was air in them, i will try to bleed the air vents in the loft, as i've not done that yet. Another potential problem is the pipes that feed the hallway rad are about 8 metres long...

Hi guys, hope someone can advise me on the following problem. My downstairs hallway rad, which is furthest from the pump, struggles to get really hot, it gets hot at the top but only warm at the bottom. I don't think it's sludge as all rads are only a couple of years old and the system was...

Thanks for the speedy answer, that is what i was thinking. So as it's their responsibility they cannot charge me to rectify the problem if there is one, is that correct? I'm also thinking it would be easier for them to put the meter outside, which would also suit me better.......don't fancy my...

Hi guys, my first post! I've been reading about copper pipe needing to be sleeved when going through a wall which i understand but i have noticed that the steel gas supply pipe that comes through the wall to feed the internal gas meter is only sleeved with a yellow plastic material. It seems...
