    Sorry Rick.......

    not enough info, we can`t give you an opinion if you don`t be a little more "specific". Shot-in the dark here, thinning pipes?, replace em. Good luck!

    Sounds like it could be a velocity issue, from an oversized pump or undersized heating loop. Or, water quality, theres alot of variables here...
