Hi All
Sorry about the long post but really need help!!!
Had a chap put some inhibitor into system Fernox MB1 via Upstairs and downstair radiator. Then upstairs radiators would not heat up no pressure or water from then when being bled. Boiler engineer advised boiler is fine and that Cold Feed Pipe is blocked. Another engineer took pump out and blew down cold feed pipe form where F&E tank is water flowed very freely no blockage there. Engineer blew down 22mm pipe connected to boiler but said blockage probably in pipe somewhere there. Engineer refilled system and now upstairs radiators have pressure and water. Heating system now heats up upstairs Rads fine BUT downstairs rads are now stone cold! Engineer suggested powerflush but this was done 3 years ago and water was extremely clean when system was drained! Pump checked and appears to be running fine as spindle bounced screw driver off it! 3 Port valve maybe faulty as lever runs without any resistance when system is on or off!
Please can someone tell what the problem maybe and why downstairs radiators cannot get hot? Is it Pump, 3 Port Valve or airlock still in downstairs circuit? Many thanks in advance.
