Hi
We have just bought a new house and we have just had a new boiler Worcester Greenstar 30 CDI system boiler along with a new tank in the loft which replaced two galvanised steel tanks in the loft. The previous boiler was a floorstanding stalrad boiler which was on its last legs.
Originally we were going to go for Greenstar 24ri regular boiler but when they were doing the work they found out that the previous boiler ran two seperate feeds for the downstairs and upstairs (I think thats what they said) so we had to go for a system boiler
However what we are finding is if we run hot water say for 5 mins if we are washing our hands or rinsing dishes there is a tremendous noise coming from the tank in the loft or pipework as it fills back up with water.
Also when the hot water is on the system seems to make a loud whirring noise that seems to be coming from where the boiler room is
Is this normal or has it been installed incorrectly? or are there new valves on the market that can reduce the noise? I am going to call them (installers) tommorrow to see what they say but would appreciate any advice so I am prepared.
TIA
Lauren
