Title: Re: ticking radiator Post by: Dazzza on Sunday, January 11, 2009, 13:46:37 Could just be the copper pipes expanding and clicking against the clips or if it's an old radiator it could just be the sections in it heating up.
Stick a lug hole to the loor as it's usually under floorboards where it clicks against something. Title: Re: ticking radiator Post by: Bushey Boy on Sunday, January 11, 2009, 14:26:44 what dazza said or a thermostat, will look when I visit
Title: Re: ticking radiator Post by: ronnie21 on Sunday, January 11, 2009, 15:01:25 It could well be the water running through the rad you are hearing, if it is you may have a small problem with air in the system or even a thermostat gone. I have the same problem myself and the plumber is coming tomorrow to fix it, check the header tank!

Title: Re: ticking radiator Post by: ronnie21 on Sunday, January 11, 2009, 18:43:34 check what in the header tank? I first noticed a problem when the header tank started to drip on the overflow. Thinking it was just a ball valve adjustment needed, I bravely ventured into the loft, only to find the header tank was full of WARM water! Guessing that this was not the norm, I contacted my tame plumber who asked for any other symptoms, all I could mention was the sound of water and ticking in the radiators. He thinks it is possibly a thermostat gone in the boiler, or if I am really unlucky a problem with the hot water cylinder.Title: Re: ticking radiator Post by: Bushey Boy on Sunday, January 11, 2009, 18:53:58 Ronnie are you sure you went into the loft? I mean come on! :)
