    Thanks Joe, If the noises stop over the next few nights do you think it could have been a bird?

    Noises under floorboards at night!

    Hi, Hope someone can help. Over the past 4/5 nights we have been kept awake by loud, intermittent, scratching, rustling and tapping noises coming from underneath the floorboards in my sons room. It seems to be just inside the door and about 6 feet away from the outside wall. (So loud my son has...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Thanks Nige!! From your comment I gather it is rather a lot for what is involved. :shock: On the plus side if they cock it up in anyway at least I can get them back. As my sons have said, "It's a minefield out there mum" (Thanks lads!) Anyway, by this time 2020 I should have grasped the basics...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Hi Tony, Mine has actually been making the noises even when the boiler has been on for a few minutes, before the water has had a chance to heat up at all. The pump seems to be going on and off OK with the usual slight over-run at times. The BG man serviced the boiler while he was here as well...

    Idiot's Guide to Central Heating

    I can knit you a fair-isle sweater, I can crochet you a lovely 60's tank top and cook a mean sunday roast if you like, but one of the many things I have extreme difficulty with is understanding my water and central heating. So, when someone goes to the trouble of trying to explain in very...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Hi guys, I have an update. On Wednesday morning the whole caboodle went off again, only I shut everything off before it could shut the boiler down. In desperation I called in BG. Would you believe the blasted thing worked like a dream while he was here so he wasn't able to identify exactly...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Here goes sweetie, 1. 11 rads. 2. 3 bed semi. 3. The boiler is freestanding in a cupboard on the landing. As I look at it down the back, on the left hand side: 1 pipe at top has 'flow' written underneath it. This pipe goes off to the right and goes through wall into the airing cupboard next...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Hi Gas2 air, Many thanks for replying so quickly. Firstly, where will I find the information on what size it is and when you say system, do you mean all the pipework and stuff? The only information I have to hand is the installation and commissioning leaflet. Will this help? The one thing I do...

    Intermittent problem with noises in pipes

    Guys & Gals, Firstly if you're tired of hearing about this please forgive me but I need some sound advice. This problem is not constant. A while ago I noticed what I can only describe as 'whooshing'noises. When the boiler (A 4 yr old Potterton Kingfisher MFCF60) comes on in the morning it...
