As always great service and was good to have Pavel again servicing the combi. He's always spot on with information on what he's done and health of the combi.

I was able to get an engineer booked at short notice, at a specific time, rather than just a vague window.

The engineer was on time, and carried out the work promptly and efficiently, and for the advertised price.

Good job all round, very happy with this company.

Their plumber Terry was punctual, and effectively replaced our leaking hot water cylinder, including nice tidy plumbing of new pipework and new valves where necessary.

Excellent professional installations and service at very competitive prices.

The central heating pump is an overlooked but essential component of the central heating system. The pump distributes hot water around your home. If your pump fails, you will have no hot water on tap or any heating. An old or incorrectly fitted pump can cause issues with your hot water supply and central heating.

Your Central Heating Pump will need to look at if you have the following problems.

The pump is humming or rattling
The pump is knocking or grating
The pump makes no noise at all
The pump won’t start
The Pump is hot to touch
Pump is leaking
No radiators are getting warm
Only some radiators are getting warm

Sometimes the pump will appear to be running. Still, no radiators are getting hot, the propellers could be stuck and will need releasing, which could be the end of the problem, but if it keeps happening regularly, the pump could be nearing the end of its life, the replacement will be in order.

Other causes of poorly working pumps can be dirt and sludge build-up or airlocks. Dirt and sludge can build up over time throughout the whole central heating system and can be cleared with power flushing while airlocks can be bled out.

A leaking pump is caused by a worn seal or corrosion in the pump itself. Worn seals can usually be replaced. If your pump is leaking due to corrosion, it will need to be replaced.

If your pumps are not working at all, it could be down to a blown a fuse, faulty wiring, or the pump has reached the end of its life and will need replacing.
