    Heating Pump not horizontally installed by BG and noisy

    My heating pump was installed by BG with the motor shaft at a 45 degree angle. Could that account for why it is so noisy? From what I have read, pumps should always be installed with the motor shaft horizontal so that the bearings wear evenly. Should I ask BG to sort it out on the next boiler...

    What causes noisy hot water tank filling up?

    Just started recently - sound like a 'whirr' when hot water tank fills up after hot taps used for a few minutes or after a shower. I don't think anything to do with Potterton boiler as the noise happens when the boiler isn't on - for either water or heating. The noise seems to be from the cold...
