My boiler has very recently started Kettling.
The is Boiler a Suprima 40L
Connected to 10 Radiators (3 Bedroom Radiators with TRVs)
Combined F+E (no Vent Pipe)
Unvented Cylinder
Manual Bypass Gate Valve open 1 turn
Pump Set to 2
Boiler Stat at Max
The kettling started after draining down the system to change a bathroom radiator to Towel radiator as the plumbing needed adjustment. I did the pipe work one weekend and fitted the towel rail a weekend later. During the week inbetween I noticed the boiler was kettling slightly, so when I fitted the new towel rail I filled it with X100 and X200. I turned off all radiators, except the towel radiator and ran the boiler on low for 30 mins before opening all other radiators.
However 3 weeks later on I am still getting kettling from the boiler and think it is actually getting worse. Kettling occurs after the boiler has been running for about 20 mins. All radiators heat up consistently to a point where they a hot to touch (can be touched for a few seconds). I have set to pump to 3 for now to see if that helps.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing the kettling problem? Could it be that the flow is somehow restricted (pump not fully working)
Thanks in advance for any advice provided
