Hi All,
First time posting on here so please be gentle with me!
Just wanted a second opinion on a recent call-out I've been to.
Tenant complaining that central heating system is very noisy when it first starts up in the morning. To the point where they can't bear the noise.
My first thoughts are that the system requires a good chemical clean as far as I am aware it has not been cleaned for 10+ years.
The pump is running fine, all radiators have been bled, boiler a little noisy. The loudest noise is from the radiators. The noise is almost as though the flow is restricted due to build up of sludge & limescale. Hence, my thoughts to chemically clean the system.
Does anyone else have any ideas as to what could be going on here?! As I say, I'm pretty certain the problem is restricted flow, but a second opinion is always handy.
Thanks in anticipation
Tom
