brown water coming from hot water taps

[gadget0184]

Help! brown water coming from hot water taps after draining system and replacing two leaking radiators and installing trv's

I suspect your system is primatic and a air pocket dispersed whilst draining. In a day or two it should settle down and stop.

Need more info on your sytem to confirm though.

what imformation would you need? i can tell you that the system has 2 tanks in loft with hot water cylinder in airing cupboard with pump and a diverter valve for hot water and heating?

 

[HarrogateGas]

did you disturb an deposts in the tanks at all?

 

[gadget0184]

not really just put in some inhibitor,there was quite a big air lock that took a while to clear. ie bleeding radiators,pump
