Hi.
After the boiler swap in mid december (Ideal logic Max combi c30), we started having this problem with rads.
Usual symptoms: colder top rad, I can hear water flowing in pipes and rads. Usually need bleeding every 1-2 weeks since then. Pressure was on same level even after bleeding, but not today. After rad bleed, pressure has gone to 0.
Guy who installed this boiler dodging to come and solve the problem, he says that the boiler works fine, he is not trading anymore (but its just the reason not to come and solve that problem)
So his thoughts was:
I can fit Spirovent or self bleeding valves, but its not solving the root problem.
Any thoughts?

So his thoughts was:
- residual air from install
- air sucked from rad connection
- lock shields restricting the flow causing turbulence ( water flowing sound in rads)
- erp pump create vortex down the pump
I can fit Spirovent or self bleeding valves, but its not solving the root problem.
Any thoughts?
