Hi all,
I'm not having too much luck with m y central heating at the moment. In one of my older houses I have been having ongoing problems with the gravity fed hot water.
The system had been drained to replace a raditaor on the ground floor. Once this was done the system was refilled. However I have not had hot water since. I have drained the system twice in order to try and solve the problem but this has not helped.
I suspect it's an air lock but am unsure of how to proceed. I can not find any air vents along the pipework. The pumped central heating works fine everytime I refill the system.
Luckily the immersion is supplying hot water for the tenants but I'd prefer to sort it out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Terry
