Hi ive just fitted a bathroom in to a house that has a newish combi boiler. Since fitting the new suite the boiler now starts when u run a cold tap. (THE COLD IS PLUMBED TO THE COLD) before u state the obvious. Is their any reason for this and could you advise me on how to rectify the problem. Cheers in advance J

have you left any dead legs on the pipework ?
Yes the cold on runs of the cold pipes, their are a few dead legs tho. Do u think air trapped in these could cause a problem then?

if you have created them since fitting bathroom then yes trapped air in the dead legs.
if problem their before you created the dead legs then i always fit one of these before the boiler
but dead legs are my first cause of concern.
