Hi
I hope someone can help. I've recently moved into a property with a Worcester 28i junior boiler. For the past 2 weeks there has been nothing but problems with it. At first the heating wouldn't stay on for no longer than an hour and kept flashing the warning light. We had someone come around and look at the boiler. He suggested it needed a new pressure switch? (I've probably got that wrong) but it was something along them lines. Anyway, the part was fitted and all was fine until 3 days after. The boiler started to make an awful banging/rattling sound upon start up of the hot water being turned on, which then started to affect the heating too. We had someone around again yesterday that bled our radiators and re pressurised the boiler. Now after he left,* I noticed the pressure dropping so I re pressurised it back to where he told me it should be (just in front of the red needle) now this morning I've turned the heating on, and within 5 minutes the pressure was rising, it got to 2 bar before I turned it off. I tried again 5 minutes later and watched to see if it would stay at 2 bar, but it continued to rise and got to 3 bar. I've turned it off and the pressure has gone back to where it should be. What could the problem be if the radiators have been bled? Could it be because he's left the filling loop on? (He said that was okay to be left on) If the radiators do need to be bled again... Do I just do any radiator?
