    New Radiator Issues

    Did your boiler installer powerflush the system? If not how did he ascertain that the system was otherwise clean and free of sludge? There's a lot of poor work in the pipework around the boiler.

    You must be replying to the wrong person because I never said anything like that. You still haven't shown me where the bad attitude was in his first post. You big sensitive fairies.

    Replaced Radiator Valves, 2 radiators not heating up as quick
