Hi,
I was at my wifes grandparents the other day and her grandma said that they had had the water turned off outside the property for some work. Since the water has been back on the pipes occasionally make a horrible vibrating loud sound when the tap, either hot or cold is turned on and off. It carries on until the tap is turned back on then off again. (if that makes sense) but then if you use the tap within the next 15-30 mins it doesnt do it. So i thought it might be trapped air so i turned the mains off under the sink and opened all the taps and then slowly turned the mains back on, no noise.
Had a text from my mother in law saying that the noise now happens in the central heating sometimes until it is turned off at the thermostat. Is this air in the pipes even though these pipes arent linked to the same pipes as the taps? Should i suggest bleeding all the rads to see if that cures it?
I am not sure of the style of boiler yet as i am waiting for an answer but the house is only a couple of years old so i assume its a condensing combi.
All help and ideas appreciated
