Hi all,
I'm hoping you can help me with a couple of questions I have for my inlaws.
There house is 30 odd years old and the hot water pump is quite noisy go say the least. It appears easy enough to replace as isolation valves at top and bottom and two nuts to release the pump. My question is...
Hi all, i have a Baxi solo boiler which is making awful noise. I have checked and double checked and it's not the pump or the flue fan, the noise is like a noisy pump and also a banging noise, it only happens after the boiler has been running for about 30 minutes and the moment the burner stops...
I am perilously close to losing my mind - so any help appreciated!
About a month ago a vibrating sound started on our cold mains (copper pipes).
This noise will often go on for 12-24 hours, always a loud rumbling sound that you can feel in the pipes.
I am in a maisonette, and believe the cold...
I'm having some rumbling and water trickling noises in radiators on my central heating system. When the hot water clicks on there is no problem and if the central heating clicks in at the same time again there is no noise - but if the central heating doesn't come on and the thermostat is turned...
changed from a gravity feed boiler system to a combi boiler and had problems with noisy pipes? About 4 weeks ago now had a new combi boiler installed, and from day 1 had noises from the heating pipes even though not on. Thought I was just up grading to a more modern space saving cost efficient...
Hi,
I've had a long running problem that I'm looking to get some advice on. I live in a 2nd (top) floor flat with loft access and a cold water tank in it. This feeds my vented CH system (heat only boiler and HW tank). Every once in a while, perhaps between 4-8 times a day, i get a loud...
We've had a problem now for several weeks which is becoming worse. We would appreciate some advice on the way forward given this difficult time when we are in isolation due to chronic ill health.
Several weeks ago, on switching on the kitchen cold tap, we began to get an odd noise that seemed...
I have an ideal logic 18 boiler in the utility room going to an unvented Tribune HE cylinder in the upstairs airing cupboard.
I moved into the house as a new build just over 2 years ago.
The heating and hot water are all working fine and the system pressure is within specs.
About 6 months ago...
I've just had a Worcester Bosh 25-32 Heat Slave oil fired boiler installed and the sound from the flue is like a jet engine and can be heard 25 yards away at the bottom of my garden. I'm told oil fired boilers are quite noisy but this is ridiculous. Is this normal. I even spent a few pounds on a...
Hi I have a vaillant ecotec plus condensing boiler which is in the kitchen with an indirect unvented centerstore cylinder in the airing cupboard. All has been well for 18 months (the cylinder was installed in April 2018.) The last few months there has been noise in the airing cupboard which...
Background
10 year old system. Has been kept scrupulously clean. Kept very up to date with inhibitor (higher than normal concentration). Several rads have been removed, flushed and then additional inhibitor added to keep concentration high. Aladdin Self-bleed vents fitted upstairs and down (5...
Hi all, i have an unvented cylinder with balanced cold feeds. The cloakroom basin monoblock tap is under 3bar of balanced pressure. As the basin is very small ive had to turn down the isolation valves to stop water flooding. Obviously this has made the taps very loud at night. Is there a way of...
Hi there
I've recently moved into a basement flat of a 4 storey house and there's a Vortech Pump Controller outside my back door. It makes a loud noise every 6 seconds, day and night. I don't know what this pump controller does but I'd like to turn it off at night. I'd really appreciate any...
Hi,
This recently started... every time the Loo is flushed the pipes are noisy when filling again and it gets worse as the day goes on...
If another tap in the bathroom is run the noise reduces and if the bath tap is opened fully the noise stops, also if I close the filling valve at the...
We have an issue where every three days whenever we draw water from either flushing a loo or turning on a tap we get a loud 'trombone' like noise. To stop this from happening we turn off mains water and open all cold water taps to drain the system and turn mains back on. This repeats every...
Hello there,
I'm new on here and would like to ask if anyone has practical advice.
I live in a converted house hence I live in the flat on the first floor and my neighbor on the ground floor.
The water supply is via a single supply from the street which splits (either underground or in the...
We got new central heating installed a couple of months ago and now I have a very noisy bathroom (mixer) tap - but only for the hot water.
According to the heating engineer the problem is the tap we currently have in the bathroom sink isn't designed for mains fed water and we need to install a...
