This is my first post, I'd really appreciate if you guys in the know could take a look...
I've noticed all of a sudden my TRVs are no longer stopping flow. When the valves are closed tight they are letting hot water through. Some radiators when the valve are closed get lukewarm, while others are very hot.
This happen all of sudden to all of the TRVs in the house and coincided with the cold weather. (Greater temperature differential, so more pressure to overcome the valves?)
What should I be looking for and what is the cause?
Context
1900's semi detached. 8mm dia pipe. Combi-boiler as photographed. Radiators as photographed.
Photo's might be completely pointless, but rather give you more to go at than too little.
