NO Hot water!

[realpants]

I have just drained the CH system and fitted a new drain radiator valve. I have re filled the system, bleed all the radiators however they are not gettin hot. I have changed the boiler control to constant.

I have just tried running the hot tap, however this is also cold, although the setting is on constant for water.

I cannot hear the boiler turning itself on, when I change these settings.

What should I do?

Sounds like the boiler just isn't firing up, I know it sounds silly, but have you flicked the switch back on for the boiler?

Did you turn the boiler off before draining the system?

I switched the boiler to off for both water and heating. I turned the water off, and I then drained the system.

When coming to refilling, I waited till the sytem had filled up I then changed the dcontrol switch to constant for both water and heating, however nothing seems to be working now!

When filling the system back up, what pressure have you brought it to, some boilers wont re-light if the pressure isn't suficient, have you pressurized it to 1.5bar?

How do I re pressurize it ?

GOt it working! The stupid thing had tripped to over heat, so would not work! Got it sorted!
