boiler noise

A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

    High pitch noise from boiler flue

    Hi, My boiler has started making a very high pitch noise when the heating turns on. It seems to be originating from the boiler flue (see video https://bit.ly/3pYMFrI ) Is this an indication of air trapped in the system ? Do radiators need bleeding ? Or a sign of faulty boiler part ? Thanks
