I've recently had my gas central heating system switched over to a sealed/pressurised with an expansion vessel taking a feed from the main. But when I'm draining the system (attaching hose to drainage valve and opening fully), it doesn't drain properly - the water continuusly flows out of it. It's as if there's another, secondary water supply going into my heating system. Yesterday I even knocked off the water at the main stopcock so the vessel and the sealed system didn't get a feed, but the water was continuously draining out of the hose (I mean for over 12 hours). In the end I had to just close the drainage valve. Any advice gratefully received.
