Hi Everyone,
This is my first post I am a complete novice computers are more my thing so bare with me. I have just moved into a new house and when I turn the boiler on to heat the water I get a loud humming sound from the airing cupboard.
It's getting worse and woke me up the last few nights, I have it set to heat the water for 45 min starting 6am. I have noticed the isolation valve above the pump is leaking from the screw see pictures attached. It looks like it has been like this for a long time looking at the rust around the pump!
Would you recommend replacing both isolation valves + the pump as it is making a loud noise?
The system is a conventional setup with a hot water tank + cold water tank in the loft.
Thanks.
