My old boiler packed up and British Gas installed a new one. They moved it to the other side of the room, and had to move the water pipes. Apparently the position of the old one was no longer legal. Since then I have been having trouble with one of my radiators, having to bleed it daily.
On my annual service, I was told that there was air in the system, and that it would settle down. Several months later, my dad took a look at it, and when he took it off, it was completely empty of water. He replaced it, and when he put the system back on, he could hear the water pouring into it as though he was running a bath tap. At the same time, he heard an almighty sploshing sound from the cold water tank which is situated above the hot water cylinder in my hall cupboard (I live in a flat).
British Gas are coming out next week to do the annual service (now both boiler and radiators), and I intend to mention this to the engineer, but would like independent thoughts please.
