We finally got our new boiler from Warm front, it's an Ideal icos HE24 & I know Ideal boilers are considered poor but we had what we were given so can't complain.
however the first five minutes after start up the boiler makes a lot of loud noises - some of which can be heard all over the house, this is only with hot water selected but it sounds like some mechanism clicking & banging inside the boiler.
We called the company who fitted it (BGC) & they sent someone the same day who altered the pump ( Grundfos Alpha2L) to the III II I side & said it was to release the air in the boiler .
However next day it's back to being noisy again & whatever pump setting I use makes no difference.
However when I looked on Grundfos website I see the lefthand side settings are for systems without thermostatic valves ( we have only one) & not to release any air in the system. there are however new auto air release things fitted somewhere.
Is this a common problem with a new settup? I guess I need to call them back
