WHAT FAILS HERE

Heating faults common in St John’s Wood

The trend for significant rear extensions in St John's Wood means we commonly encounter heating systems where the original expansion setup is no longer sufficient for the property's new, larger footprint.

01

Frequent pressure loss in altered systems

Adding radiators to a new extension increases the system's water volume, which can overwhelm the expansion vessel's capacity. An engineer will monitor the pressure gauge over a heating cycle, check for water discharging from the pressure relief valve, and test the vessel's pre-charge with a tyre gauge to see if its air cushion has failed.

02

Boiler locking out due to pressure spikes

A undersized or failed expansion vessel causes pressure to rise dangerously high when the system heats up, triggering the safety cut-out. Diagnosis involves watching the pressure rise as the boiler fires, isolating whether the vessel is waterlogged by checking the Schrader valve, and assessing if the system's total volume has increased beyond the vessel's rating.
