so the challenge is to come up with an automated inline gizmo for purging air which is regularly getting into the outlet pipes running from 2 vented coffin tanks. These supply a pair of flats below a new 2nd floor roof conversion.
BACKGROUND INFO... the copper pipes were neatly laid by an experienced and trusted plumber and (seemingly) regularly clipped / supported along 4mtr straight runs along the eaves before elbowing inward and down thru the subfloor to supply the hw cisterns in the flats below. We don't think they're sagging but maybe the runs were just a bit too long, who knows where the problem lies because...
the pipework is now well and truly buried within 30cms of acoustic insulation, fire barriers etc plus boarded & carpeted over. i.e we can't get to anything without destroying a lot of hard work. Sods Law the airlocks started happening after we finished everything so now the hunt is on ....
all replies most gratefully received, cheers James
