Bear with me all you plumbimg experts, this will seem a trivial question for you. I have seen on numerous posts on some forums about cisterns and cold water storage tanks that are noisy fillers. When asked to describe the noise it is generally along the lines of "it sounds like water rushing...
Hi, I would like someadvice on my old Kingfisher RS80 MK2 (no overheat stat version) which is very noisy and the gravity returntemp is higher than the gravity flow temp.
I moved in 18months ago knowing the boiler would halve to bereplaced sooner rather than later. What I didn’t realise that...
Hi guys,
living in a 40 year old ex council house. Coal fire, back boiler (totally enclosed) and the pump has been quite noisy for a few years now, more so upon start up and then it's just a whine or hum throughout each room. I suspect it's just simply a build up of sludge and the pump is...

Hi guys
Need some help with a baxi solo 24 he. It's making a loud buzzing noise once it's been on for about 20 minutes, it sounds like a fighter plane. It only does it when the heating is on and it's fine when only the hot water is on, any ideas? thanks.
Hi,
I have a Housewarmer economy 45 cast iron back boiler, which is banging and popping quite loudly. As it's working ok, I don't want to change it, but just clean it. The whole system has been cleaned out a couple of times and is reasonably clean also all the rads heat ok. My idea is to...
I've just moved into a flat with a Trianco Aztec 9kW electric boiler and it constantly makes a soft whiring noise. You don't really notice it during the day, but at night it's very, very audible through a partition wall.
Can anyone give me an indication of whether this is normal? I don't want...
I have an s plan system with an unvented cylinder and a radiator circuit.
For the last month or so, when the 2 port valves shut, but the pump overrun is still running, I hear a vibrating noise coming from the bypass valve / AVDO.
It sounds like water struggling to get through the valve/...
Hello folks, I am new to the forum and would just like to say any help would be greatly appreciated.
My mother is a pensioner who lives on her own since my dad passed away. She rang me up asking what she should do about her boiler as it is making a hell of a noise.
A new replacement boiler is...
Hi Guys,
Probably an easy fix with some expert knowledge but my toilet is being awfully noisy when it refills after a flush. I've tried Googling this issue but I can't find any toilets with my set up (where the water is coming out to fill the tank is different to all the toilets I've seen)...
Hello
I hope someone can help.
I live in a flat. The person upstairs to me has carried out some work and moved their toilet. Now the soil pipe behind my bathroom wall is very noisy particularly when the toilet is flushed. We think the problem is that the soil pipe (behind my bathroom wall)...
Hi guys, I have only recently done the lpg change over course. Installed an intergas 28/24 and a gas hop. The gas gas is not connected yet.
I fired the boiler up this afternoon. Runs well, But the regulator is making alot of hissing noises( not a gas leak- done tightness test).
It is a 700k...
Hi. I recently moved into a new house, which has a vented c/h system with Potterton FSB 30 HE system boiler. The problem is that the boiler makes a loud whining noise when the heating is on. I had Potterton out under warranty, and they changed the fan and added some chemical cleaner, but to no...
Hi
About a month ago my neighbour asked me what the vibrating noise was coming from my house. She does moan quite a bit but I think id kinda got used to how loud it had become.
I dont really know much about this sort of thing but I got lucky and after moving my grundfos pump from 1 speed to 2...
hello, we have just moved into a house which seems to have some problems: it has twin potterton suprima 80 boilers separated into 2 zones/2 thermastats supplying a total of 26 rads. The majority of rads have trvs - not all are working. I have been monitory the gas usage daily and plotting what...
Hi,
I've recently had a new central heating pump installed to replace the antique I had which was getting towards end of life.
The new one has started making a horrible whine when heating the hot water tank which seems to go away if put on at the same time as the central heating.
Any idea...
Hi all
System: Worcester Bosch 38CDi combi, 10 rads on two floors, all on same circuit, all with TRV except large towel rail in bathroom. System and boiler are new, in 28mm copper with 15mm branches to Stelrad Compact rads. The TRVs are Danfoss RAS-C2 combi.
Question: When a few rads have got...
Had one Tvr fitted yesterday and last night it started vibrating and very noisy banging sound. If I turn down from 5 slightly then it stopped....for a while and then, I presume, once it reached lower temperature it started again. Like an older thread on same subject (2011) mine also had a...
We have the Potterton Performa 18e boiler which is in the kitchen. Over the past week it has been making a loud moaning noise and there is now no hot water and the radiators are only mildly warm.
I noticed when i opened the front fascia that the pressure gauge reads zero. After reading around...
