Hi
I have just moved into a new house (not new build) and dont seem to have any hot water or central heating.
I've checked a few things and i'm looking for advice on what else to look at.
When switching the water and heating to 'continuous' on the programmer, the boiler fires ok and feels hot.
The pump is vibrating and feels warm to touch also.
When i slide the lever on the motorised value to open, it slides back down to 'Auto'.
My first thoughts was that the pump may be at fault. With it vibrating away, will it be ok?
My boiler is an 'Ideal W GT-101B' if that helps.
Last night I bled all the radiators in the house and noticed that the 5 downstairs appeared fine but the 2 upstairs - hardly any water came out of them. Could this mean that there is an airlock in the system?
Any ideas on what else i can looks for?
