This installation dates from 2006 and is in my parents house to heat 10-12 rads but not hot water which is done by the AGA.
They have the boiler turned on all the time and use the temperature dial to turn it on and off.
It has got the seven day timer, but that is beyond my parents usually.
So the pump is on constantly at the lowest speed; 1.
They don't usually have that many rads turned on, maybe only five and only turn the boiler on in the evenings in the summer.
But now it is cooler they tried to use it this weekend.
I had to re-pressurise the system and bled all rads.
The two rads furthest in the circuit from the boiler do not get warm quickly, the ones nearest the boiler heat up really well but the last two get just above cold, they may heat up up over time but the ones nearest get so hot I turn the boiler off.
I feel the feed pipe which goes upstairs getting hot quite quickly but the return takes a little longer to warm.
Any suggestions as to what the problem may be?
