Hello, over the last few days we have had no hot water, the rads work fine.
i have the boiler in the kitchen and the tank in the airing cupboard on landing.
this is a weird bit, when we put the hot water on the rads upstairs come on also not downstairs, only up, this has happen ever since we moved in the house 6 months ago.
So, the water is not heating up at the moment, but the rads are still coming on upstairs.
the 2 tanks in the loft are full and the ball valves work fine.
from what i can see coming out of the boiler there is 2 15mm pipes and 2 20mm pipes, 1 of the 15mm pipes is piping hot and the other pipes are cold, and no pipes at the tank upstairs are hot.
Only the hot water is on, not the heating.
Last week i took 3 rads off downsairs to paint and then replaced them, to fill them up i had to plug a hose onto the tap and the rad and fill the system up that way. when the system was full i heard the overflow running water outside, which was coming from the small tank in the loft.
Hope someone could help.
Thanks, lee
