Dont be silly, you gotta try and help. Its people like Paul that seem to have a wealth of knowledge but like to take pleasure in putting other people down when they try and help, all he should of done was answer the question at hand not patronise them.

Yes mate you did, sorry i didnt mean that you didnt help. All i was saying was that Gasguru was the only one who suggested getting the meter checked out. Thanks for your advice!

So what do you call all of the above then Paul?? Just a simple answer would have been fine. Well yes i wouldnt have said condescending otherwise would i. Sorry buts that the way i took it. Anyway, the only person who was even close to hepling me solve this problem was 'Gasguru'. The only...

Paul i only came here for some help, not condescending remarks. Is there really any point to this website if the answer is to call a Plumber every time? Oh sorry Boiler Engineer.

Oh my god, ive just noticed that my boiler has a built in frost thermostat. I specifically remember the plumber saying i will need one fitted by an electrician, so i had it done. I've even got the bill for it too!! Just goes to show some people really have no idea what they are fitting eh...

I think i will yes. The water main is nowhere near the gas meter, i can clearly hear that its the gas meter. Its situated in a hallway and it used to be silent before but now i can hear the hissing when the CH is on.

The actual model is a CB28, sorry i should have said earlier, i didnt look at the front of the boiler just the instructions i had for it. Did anyone see my comments about the noise now coming from the actual gas meter since this fault has occurred? could someone confirm if i should call...

I dont really want to get into a political argument over who's advice i should take, all i want to know is what you guys think the problem is, how easy it is to rectify and i will then decide on whether i call out a plumber or not. If 2 or 3 of you guys say its the same thing then when i call...

No never, but im pretty good with things like this, can follow instructions very well, take things apart and rebuild etc. Draining the boiler must be pretty simple no?

Thanks for the quote. Perhaps i watch a bit too much Watchdog and Rogue Traders :D

Yes he is....

Well done, thanks for the info! Did you have to do anything like drain the boiler or take something else apart to get to it? If its really simple i may just have a go myself :wink:

Yes it is, sorry i forgot to mention that. If i turn the boiler to HW only it does exactly the same. One thing ive noticed that might be worth mentioning is that i can hear a noise coming from the actual Gas Meter. I have one of those pre-pay machines (if that makes a difference) and i can...

Hi, I really hope you can help, not sure if i'll be able to fix the problem myself but at least i'll know what to look for when i call out a plumber and hopefully avoid getting ripped off. Anyway, to the issue itself. The CH seems to be working perfectly, all rads heat up and stay...
