Hi Folks,

Looking for some advice regarding my hot water and heating from my combi boiler I have bled all my radiators and raised the bar pressure to the usual 3 downstair my heating and the hot water is too hot to touch by hand however upstairs I find that the radiators are much cooler and the bath taps when I run a bath I don`t have too add cold water to cool.
What can I do to achieve a balance will I have to bled the pipes in the boiler itself

Hope you can help

Thanks

Firstly pressure should be around 1 bar when system is cold!

Radiators may just need balancing, see FAQ's.

Hot water is too hot? Depending on boiler, usually an adjustment on control panel of boiler for water temp, turn it down a bit!
