I am a central heating novice and so I'm hoping someone can help me...
This morning my Central Heating/Hot Water system woke me making a continuous mooing/moaning sound. The sound seems to be coming from the upstairs airing cupboard which houses the hot water tank and programmer. When I switched off both the central heating and hot water at the programmer the noise stopped.
I have only recently moved into my house, an old Victrorian semi, but the details of the CH/HW system are as follows:
Boiler: Ideal 'System'
Hot water cylinder has header tank.
No cold water storage tank.
Radiators each have individual TRV(?) thermostats.
I have noticed that the hot water really splutters out of the taps, especially from the upstairs and downstairs bathroom sinks.
I also suspect that not all of the radiators are heating up properly (we've only just turned on the heating!). Is this likely to be air trapped in the system?
I don't know if these problems are related or not. Can anyone advise me on this?
