    Air in system - now not working

    Thanks. DIdn't realise I had to wait for water to come out - thought I was just waiting for hissing to stop and probably did it a bit tentatively at first for fear of water gushing everywhere! I've just done all the radiators as above and all seems to be ok now - bits of rads that were cold...

    Is it time for a new dishwasher?

    My dishwasher keeps filling up (and overflowing) with water when it's not on, but the water drains away properly after a cycle. We had the same problem 2 years ago and we had a 'repair set' and new inlet valve fitted at a cost of £120. The repair man also recommended that we change the supply...
