My water keeps going cold?

Hi Debbie,

Problem with your water? Sounds painful.... ;o)

But seriously, it sounds like there could be a trapped air bubble in your system somewhere. Could have been added when you had it serviced. Have you noticed any 'clunking' noises as the water temp changes??

Suggest tryign bleeding your radiators, then tie the ball cock up in the header tank (usually is either in the attick next to the larger water tank) to your hot water system so that no more cold water can go into the boiler to heat. Then, drain your hot water through the lowest tap (probably the kitchen) so that the whole system is empty. Then turn the tap off when the water stops and release the ball cock in the header tank, but be careful to release the water gradually to avoid making any more air bubbles in the system.

Hope this helps??
