Hi central heating won't keep a constant temperature , rads heat up to required temperature then cool down to like warm with a noticeable change in room temperature. Any ideas on this would be most appreciated thanks

yeah, its not reaching temp only at boiler tho!
i take it as its an open vent system, tank in loft?
turn down the boiler stat to half way and monitor for change. if the systems sludged up or the water cant pump efficiently around system then the boiler-reaching its temp will turn boiler off. this way the water has a chance at a lower temp to circulate into the system. this is assuming nothings wrong with the room stat?
