Hi, We've not had the oil on much as it's been quite warm. Anyway, we've had it on lately due to the drop in temperatures and I've noticed that there's a noise coming from the pump in the airing cupboard (nothing that sounds too different from when it's running) although this is even when the...

Have just had a new Worcester Bosch 24i boiler fitted. It heats up the house and the water lovely. However, the boiler is not very quiet when it's working. It makes a constant droning noise when it's on (not loud but loud enough to hear). As it is a brand new boiler I was expecting it to be...

Hi Guys I had to drain down my system to do some joints and fit in a new radiator. All went swimmingly. I refilled the system and drained the air from the rads which went fine. But there is a problem with the boiler, every time it tries to heat the water the boiler makes a banging noise. I...
