An open mind?! Unless the OP claims to be short of funds, of course. Or they have an expensive car, or they make a spelling mistake.Agile said:When dealing with heating repairs I also have to keep an open mind as to the cause of any malfunction.

Assuming that she's telling the truth and assuming that her interpretation of the plumber's actions and words is correct....because she is only posting here because the plumber is clearly unable to understand or solve the problem.
We can only have CH if we have HW
When the CH kicks in the pipe going into the cylinder cools down. This is still cool when the CH clicks off. The boiler fires up and gets very very hot then there is an almight explosion and water (?) shoots up the expansion pipe and out of the overflow.
I am sure that the hot water doesnt get as hot as the radiators.
