I had a new Worcester Bosch 12Ri fitted about 4 months ago.
I has been performing fine and my gas bills are a lot less than my old Apollo 15/30b.
However over the last few weeks, I have been having gurgling / whoshing noises from the hot water system. The whoshing noise is only there when starting from cold and seems to a lot worse when on water heating rather than central heating (I have 2 circuits with a 3-way valve). The central heating pump is currently on its highest setting (the apollo needed this as it was a low water content heat exchanger).
Then this morning I heard a trickling noise, like a tap being left on.
I located the source of the noise as the Magnaclean in the airing cupbaord.
Does the Magnaclean need cleaning?
I bleed the air out of the system by opening an air bleed valve in the airing cupboard (although very little air came out). This didn't fix the problem.
The radiators are make trckling noises when first starting from cold. You actually hear the noise traveling from one radiator to the next as it goes through the loop.
I have not bleed the radiators since the next boiler was fitted.
Could it just be air in the system?
