Hi all,
This is my first post, but I've used this site many times and it's help me tip toe my way through owning my first house.
I moved into a house end of Feb, it's a 1960's local authority property.
I've been having trouble since moving in that the radiators making a gurlging sound. I hear the noise of the pump go, then a whoosh and a gurgling sound moved through the radiators. It seems to be more apparent in the radiators closest to the boiler, same level and above.
Anyway, they've all been bled, repeatably. Now my theory is that air is getting into the pump, however I can't find the pump anywhere in the house. I've taken the cover off the boiler but can't see one. Any help?
The boiler is an ideal RS 260, serviced not long before I moved in (apparently) looking to sort the problem as it's very frustrating in the early mornings, and with the weather being as it is it needs some time to warm up.
Roll on cavity wall insulation.
I should say that the system is open vented (header in loft, and hot water tank with immersion 1st floor between bedrooms)
