Hi,
Last week we where havng a problem with our radiators downstairs being cold. I thought there was an air lock in the system so turned all the heating off whilst at work then when I got back in I bled all the radiators from top to bottom and turned the boiler back on. This actually worked fine and all the radiators were really hot including the hot water, until the next morning... the boiler fired up but the radiators throughout the house are now cold and have been since yesterday and the water from the tap is now luke warm...??
from reading some of the other posts on this forum I thought I might need to get the central heating system flushed as there maybe sludge in the radiators..? but what I can't understand is that the radiators were really hot 2 nights ago..
since then Ive tried numerous times to bleed the radiators and to still no joy..
the boiler we have is a potterton suprima 30.. I noticed we have a motorized valve attached to the tank. Could it be that this might be faulty?
any suggestions would be appreciated..
thanks
