in a previous thread which i cannot locate I was being helped with radiators that don't hear up properly upstairs. I was advised to call in a heating pro which I have now done. He came out today and attempted to balance my system. The system is a British Gas 330 boiler, range rated to 24kw. The original commissioning paperwork said a temp differential of 12 degrees was set across flow and return. Today the engineer balanced for a 15 degree differential across all radiators with a flow temp of 70 degrees. After 7 hours of work which was well above the 2 hour estimate he has admitted defeat: he said he can balance all the radiators to a 15 degree differential but at the boiler the flow is 70 and the return remains at 60 degrees no matter what he does.
Do you guys have any comments as to what may be the cause? I asked the engineer if the auto bypass was causing an issue but he said he had taken his measurements from a position upstream of the bypass.
