Hi guys im NOT a plumber lol. Our central heating system broke down about 2 months ago. Recently 2 engineers said I have a blockage and need to flush the system. The problem we had was that the boiler keeps cutting out and it appears there is no water getting into the rad's upstairs.
I have today hired a flushing machine and have started the process, however, although all rad's now appear to have water in only 3 out of 4 get hot upstairs and none get hot down stairs.
Also the pipe from the flush machine to the system appears full of water while the return pipe appears empty. If I reverse the flow on the machine then again the pipe into the system is full but gain the return is empty. It appears as so there is no presure on return.
Does this mean I do have a blockage and if so will the flush machine sort it out? or does an body have any other ideas?
Cheers
