I will do, but as suggested, maybe not today. I`ll be referring back to various ideas, magnets etc,: for the moment I`m happy just to bask in the warm glow of our achievement! Thanks again.

I`ll be honest, I want nothing further to do with them. Absolutely nothing. I didn`t pay for 3of the 4 visits, but absurdly they are still after £100 for coming outon the 3rd: I`m just leaving it... if they do continue then I`ll pursue the TRVs, and post my.... not so glowing review on...

This morning, for the first time since June, the heating came on, silently, and all the radiators are hot. It seems the problem IS finally solved! (Sadly it`s so hot I can`t actually revel in my new-found warmth, but the time will come) Yep, I will do that, but it is virtually silent now...

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS CONTRIBUTED IDEAS TODAY, I APPRECIATE ALL YOUR TIME AND i WILL CONSIDER ALL YOUR THOUGHTS OVER NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS - ALTHOUGH HOPEFULLY, FINGERS CROSSED, WE HAVE A SOLUTION. THANKS AGAIN! STEVE

Right.... now I`ve been here before so I`m not going to count my chickens but... I turned the pump down to one and all the whooshing noises have stopped and I`ve been able to turn ALL the rads on, all hot, all quiet (previously I could only open 3 before the noises and vibration set in.) As I...

T/he header tank is quite clean to be fair and they have fitted a Bosch magnetic filter for the reason you stated.

Thanks for that, will look at that later - wasn`t considering legal pathway, I know how fraught that can be! I am aware that corners were cut: they blame leaking valves - which should all have been replaced with TRVs to comply with building regs. And, as for valves, they`ve all been...

For the record, here is the mail I got last week after disputing the call out charge (for not getting system running): Good Afternoon, Steve After our phone conversation earlier I have sent spoken to Phil Taylor and this is what he had to say - We have been out 4 times for a fault on his...

I think I`d agree with that!

Hi, yes it is, the arrow goes upwards which goes to the ch dhw Curious what purpose this pipe serves, seems to have some sort of valve in the end?

Fair enough: part of the problem is that my ex-partner, as I mentioned, had major open heart surgery last month, really touch &go, she`s very lucky to have survived (ruptured aorta) so that`s been my priority, and still is as she`s very very weak and recuperating at mine. Had a voicemail...

Hi, no there has never been an issue previously maybe the nipples were fitted `just in case`. Or for initial bleeding? I agree it`s an air lock, you can hear jgurgling and bubbling on start up but this NEVER ever happened previously. To me, if you install new parts in `whatever`, and...

I`ve already been in touch with CAB and they said pretty much the same as you and have provided a template for writing formally. I`ve put off doing so as it`s a last resort, no going back. TBH I hope they don`t respond as I don`t particularly want them back in my house, I`d rather get someone...

Credit card I wish! Sadly, bank transfer. Billing me for attending and threatening "further action" for nonpayment is the final straw

You must forgive me, I have NO understanding of how CH works - but sounds like you have a plausible fault they never thought of. "vent was located at the top cylinder port and the cold fill at the bottom; the cold fill would usually clog over a long period, or severely restrict the cold fill...

yes.

On the plus side I`m now £800 in credit with Octopus... ;) BTW it`s a Worcester Bosch greenstar Ri18, 4 rads downstairs, 4 upstairs

Hello. I had an old gravity fed, conventional, central heating boiler which had started to seep water from the heat exchanger, otherwise the system worked perfectly (no leaks, no air locks) In June I had a company come to quote, checked the system as it stood, said it would be no problem and...
