Help!
Before you tell me to call a plumber let me explain that its not possible. There are 2 plumbing companies within 100 miles and we are blacklisted with both... it's a long story but it's pertaining to my ex husband. This was his shop before he left me, he installed it, I am 65yo and all I get when I call is a bs story about how they wont work on plumbing they didn't install ... sure.
Ok, so the boiler went out, would not start was an error code 11. Its about 8 years old and we opened the water filter knob under the tank to clean the filter. It wasn't there. So we shut the water supply off and drained the drained the boiler, took out about 1/2 gallon of what looks like muddy water, reinstalled the plug and it fired up for a short time then went back to error code 11. Its a Takagi TK4 IN. We did this a few times and it never would start so since the local A$$ plumbers would not come over we brought a new boiler, same model, installed it and it fired right up but it was making a lot of gurgling noises.
That's the limit of my knowledge. The boiler runs fine but is making a lot of noise, groaning, gurgling, temperature is 140 degrees. GPM reads anywhere from 0.5 to 3, in temp was 58, out was 64. Thermostats (3) are set at 65 and 65 and 67. I have no idea how to bleed or fill the system. The 2 gauges at the top are always reading zero. The system is closed type with 3 zones for a concrete slab of 3000sf. The red pumps at the bottom of the picture are the 3 zones, the one furthest left gurgles a lot, the middle one not so much and the right one is quiet. Also same with temperature , left is much hotter than right.
That's all I can tell you .. Can someone help please ?
