T M Hughes i can highly recommend for your electrical work. I had no idea who to ask to sort out the failed ceiling light in our bathroom. Impressed by the reviews & their website, i phoned & spoke to Andy. He arranged for Paul to be at my home the next day. Paul arrived next day. He fitted new lights to the bathroom & toilet ceiling in one hour. All work nicely carried out, no problem. A few weeks later, Andy & Paul arrived to fit a new PIR light to the side wall of our house. Again, a lovely professional job done in an hour. I supplied all the lights, i just required professionals to fit them safely for me. Very pleased to have found T M Hughes. I will use them for all my electrical work in future. Prices are fair, the work done to a very high standard. Thank you Andy & Paul.

Had air conditioning installed in 3 bedrooms , Installed new shower screen and bath panel and resealed the bath. Also had new radiator fitted in our bedroom. All the work was completed to a high standard all the guys were friendly and happy. Would have no hesitation in recommending them.

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.
