Combi sounds like a washing machine

[Sanke]

Hello everyone
Recently added a rad for a customer. In doing so drained down system etc, all was fine when I left. He phoned me yesterday to say that since then every time his boiler switches off it sounds like a washing machine finishing its cycle. Got to go & look tomorrow but would appreciate any ideas/suggestions please

hi, make sure the auto air vent cap is loosened and that all the air is removed from the boiler

Not done much on boilers as yet. How do I remove the air from the combi ?

it will be air in system you did top it up when you bled new rad,check auto air vent,ask customer if got manual,read commissioning,some combi condensers have certain purging processes
