Hi all
am currently hearing a loudish vibration sound (rather than rattling) in the CH system, particularly upstairs. Its deffo not the pump, and the rads are fully bled. Prob an obvious one for you guys but not for me!
thanks
Hi Guys does anyone know where I can get some anti vibration inserts for radiator brackets please. I have installed the rads on a job and the painters removed the rads to paint and lost some of the inserts. The results are the rads are rocking a bit.
Cheers guys. - Pete

the boiler is working fine, rads...
Hi there, have just been to a customer's house and whenever she flushes the WC on the first floor and once it's stopped re-filling there's a loud vibration - almost like a macerator pump starting and stopping. It's not in the cistern itself, and I can't trace it without raising floorboards etc...
