Hi, I'm looking for info on a Halstead Buckingham boiler, not sure of the model but it's 6+ years old.
I am in the middle of rebuilding my bathroom and needed to move the location of the radiator, I ended up changing the radiator for a nice new towel radiator and thought it would be a great idea to install a second towel radiator in the down stairs loo (directly under the bathroom) as a result the 2 new radiators do not work. I get hot water to them if I open the bleed valve for long enough but it doesn't stay hot for long.
The Boiler has the following.
one standard time controller HW / CH on off etc (mounted on the wall)
one temperature control knob (on the front of the boiler)
One gas pipe
Two 22mm pipes coming down the wall. (These seem to go to the pump which is mounted on the top part of the boiler under the lid)
Two slightly bigger than 22mm pipes running down the wall next to the 22mm pipes. (I think these are the HW pipes, but not sure how this water circulates)
That’s the system.... I think that maybe the bathroom radiator is somehow heated from the HW circuit, if so how can I get these new radiators working? (Remember one of the new radiators is down stairs and there is nowhere else near the downstairs loo for a feed)
Is there a pump I can use?
Thanx in advance for any help.
