Alpha 240 boiler loud noises from pipes

Hi,

I have installed my Alpha 240 boiler three years ago. This boiler is good in terms of efficiency. Well, from last few days I am hearing some strange sounds, which are coming from the pipes. This problem seems quite weird. Please help.

Thanks

Tom

Hi, these unusual sounds can be considered as a strong indication of kettling. The noisy pipes are generally caused by the limescale buildup, faulty thermostat & inadequate water pressure; it can cause persistent problems in the central heating system. Apart from this, you can hear these sounds when the boiler has a low pressure of water or the pump failure. You should call a boiler engineer in order to fix this issue.
