3 year ago had a replacement potterton Kingfisher mf fitted and all my 16 radiators have worked OK up to when I had a replacement I/Direct Water Cylinder fitted.
The previous cylinder had a Thermostatic Valve fitted for the hot water system, but the Corgi engineer employed for the changeover, decided that this TV was not necessary, so it was removed and since completion of this work, all the radiators have struggled to work efficiently.
all the upstairs (6) except the bathroom are permanently turned off and of the other groundfloor rads (10) only 6 seem to heat up and the remaining 4 are constantly cold.
Since these problems started, the system has been drained and re-filled many times with Sentinel X400 sludge remover added about 3 times as is current, the lockshields have been balanced and the whole system was completely power flushed (Aug 2008) @ a cost of £500+, but still we have 2 stone cold and 2 just warm rads, despite the trv's, boiler & room stats all set at maximum, but the tap hot water is scalding and dangerous.
Any suggestions will be gratefully appreciated as none of the 3 different plumbing engineers I have employed seem to have any positive answers.
