combi system sounds
This is what my CH sounds like... http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mike_wh...r/clips/ch.wav It is quite loud. It is not a gurgling air sound. But more a rushing around like billio sound! I've got a setting to reduce flow, but it is supposed to be self regulating anyhow. Boiler is brand new combi and whole system has been flushed and I'm confident that it was done well. Is a noise reducing additive going to be useful? What else do you need to know? 15mm copper with 22mm from/to boiler and between floors. -- Mike W |

It's air the whole system needs to be bled. Expansion chamber to low? -- zaax |

If it is really brand new it might settle down after a few days. When I refill mine after maintenance work which has required a drain down therefore fresh water it is noisy for a while despite thorough bleeding. IIRC, water contains air in suspension for a while. -- *Why are they called apartments, when they're all stuck together? * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
