Hi, first post on here so go easy :)

I have the aforementioned boiler installed by BG approx 5 years ago and has been on homecare agreement ever since. In the summer we had a breakdown, no hot water, took BG a week and three different guys and virtually every part in the boiler replacing before it was corrected, including the exchanger, flu, and numerous valves and sensors and a control panel(would have been cheaper to replace the boiler wiv a new one!!!).

Now over the last few weeks as the really cold weather has started to creep in i noticed the house is nt keeping as warm as i remember and checked the rads and found alot of them half cold. Went round and bled them and took a lot of air out, but in doing so knocked the boiler out on a low pressure warning. No probs i thought just open filling loop tap and jobs a good un. No go , filling tap seized shut. Removed freed of, re pressurised and capped of. Hey presto heating on.

Alas although the rads are hot throughout from top to bottom, the house is still feeling chilly even while boiler on full blast. And you can place your hands on any rad and keep them there without pain! whereas last winter i remember not being able to do that last winter.

Any ideas as the homecare agreement has now finished and we didnot extend it

Many thanks, bit of a long post i know , sorry
