I have a cold house following a recent pressure vessel repair.
The house is nearly 8 yrs old, fitted with a 2.0kw Ariston combi boiler and 15 radiators. The house has been warm with no temperature issues since being built.
The pressure relief valve was jammed open for the first 2 years, fixed with no issue.
The pressure recently went from 0 to 3 bar, and the fault was the pressure vessel, which was pumped back up.
Since the pressure vessel repair the house cannot be made warm regardless of playing with radiators, pressure etc.
The repair company are saying it is underdesigned, and the repair causing the coldness (immediately after the repair) was simply a coincidence (after nearly years).
Not convinced the pump is working effectively as after having the boiler on for 15 mins the exit pipe was only luke warm.
Their recommendation is for an expensive pressure flush. I am not convinced and belief their repair has caused another problem, hence am awaiting a visit from another company for a second opinion.
Any views, or should I simply accept the coincidence after such a long time of working properly and go ahead with the expensive flush?
