    Hot Water not working if controls left on 24/7

    Gasguru, All the pipework appears to be securely clipped. And yes there is a bypass valve, with a knob - I guess so you can adjust the rate of flow. Yesterday, I was able to recreate the problem using the cylinder thermostat - when I turn the temperature down, after the water has been...

    Water hammer from Hot water System

    Thanks for your help so far. I believe both are OK. The tank in the loft has water in it and the pump appears to work when the boiler is on. There are no problems with the hot water itself - there is plenty of it. The only problem is the loud bang in the morning and evening!
