[QUOTE="slow-lane-Matt, post: 591738, member: 19329"] Thanks for the comments. The cylinder was replaced by a professional plumber when we had a back boiler fitted to wood burner, but apparently he f*ed it up and the problem is exactly as SteveGTU describes. The system traps air in the entry to cylinder. That pipe should be fitted downwards so air flows up to overflow in attic overflow and doesn't block entry to cylinder. Temporary fix was slackening bolt to release the air, longterm will get pump fitted. (Was helped by a plumbers forum - what did we do before the internet!) [/QUOTE]
