You will hear some noise from the fan, but nothing much more and it
shouldn't be audible through two doors.


the motor is set to it's highest speed but 'he who does the diy' says

this
must be obeyed - the manual says so?


The pump?


yes the pump



You need to work out whether the noise is the pump or the fan

It sounds as though it is pump noise transmitted through the pipework.


yes i would say partly so


thinking about boxing it in but can't see it making that much

difference.

If it's pump noise then not much.


any suggestions - we have nothing to compare to coz we had warm air

before
and were looking forward to a quieter winter !!!!! no such luck :-(

I would contact the installer and get him to fix it.


might speak to installer again but he's not much use on the finer points

of
boiler usage and has previously said the volume is right

i just emailed Worcester.



As a preliminary check (and not to be left beyond a very brief test period)
try turning down the pump speed while listening to the level of noise. If it
is the pump this should be immediately apparent. If its the fan then no
effect will be noticed.
As an aside I installed a Worcester Combi a couple of years ago and it had
been shipped with a noisy fan. Worcesters changed it under warranty but the
second was also noisy :-( The thrd was OK though.
