Hi all, looking for some help!
We live in a nearly new home with a combi boiler. We have dual zone thermostats: one upstairs and one downstairs. Downstairs seems good with no challenges
Upstairs - we have 6 radiators and 2 heated towel rails.
All radiators and one towel rail have TRVs. With the exception of a double radiator in the main bedroom which has no TRV in addition that is where the thermostat is located.
Over the last month I have noticed a recurring clicking sound in and around the main bedroom, accompanied by a fairly loud thud (almost like something dropping from a shelf), again coming from in or around the main bedroom. In addition the main radiator without TRV runs very hot. The upstairs of the house is a nice temperature, but bedroom radiator seems overly hot.
All upstairs radiators are set between 2/3, and the thermostat is set to 20 degrees. The questions:
1. Any ideas what could be causing the clicking/banging sound;
2. Should I try turning the thermostat down, or adjusting the other radiators from the 2/3 setting;
3. How can I get the temperature of the bedroom radiator down further?
I suspect 2 or 3 are related to 1.
Thanks all, welcome the comments.
