The site funds itself that way. Not the fault of the poster except for using
such a naff portal to Usenet. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no pictures please Note this Signature is meaningless.!

Â* Brian Well it works in my system, it slowly descales any crud in the boiler and instead of loud bangs every now and again you get a gentle fizzing sound as the boiler reaches max temperature. That's assuming the problem is not caused by something like thermostatic radiator valves closing down and no bypass valve has been installed. The OP has given insufficient detail about when the problem happens. How long after the heating starts does the problem occur? Minutes? Hours? -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

And that results usually from failure of the pump overrun, clogging of the system, closure of all valves or failure of the boiler stat. It can also be due to scaling in the boiler, but that would be the result of some other problem. Where to go from here depends on whether it's always been that way in midwinter or whether it's a new thing this year. A lot of folk here block messages from the website you're using. You can access news:uk.d-i-y on Google groups or with a newsreader app. NT |
