Worcester Bosch 230 Gurgling Sounds

Hi All,

I have installed a Worcester Bosch 230 boiler three years ago. It worked extremely well, but recently it has started making some gurgling sounds. Radiators and hot water are working fine. I would like to share that readings of a pressure gauge are less than 1 bar. I have increased it but gurgling sounds are still there. I need help on urgent basis

Thanks

Jen

Hi Jen,

When boiler starts making gurgling sounds, it is necessary to identify the reason as soon as possible. Some common reasons behind gurgling sounds/noises in your boiler are as follows:

  • Limescale in the heating system, if your Worcester boiler is making a loud gurgling sound, do check the limescale in heating system as limescale is extremely damaging & have a major impact on the performance & lifespan of your boiler’s central heating system.
  • If your boiler’s thermostat is set very high, it can cause gurgling sounds. Thus, try to lower the temperature on the thermostat in order to prevent gurgling sounds.
  • Insufficient flow of water can also force your boiler to make weird noises.
  • Lastly, inadequate water pressure can cause Worcester Bosch boiler to make gurgling sounds.

I hope that this information will help you!
