Any Heating Engineers on the board?

???

in addition to this, i've got 1 radiator that only heats the very bottom half, i pressume i've got to 'drain it' of air somehow?!?!? any clues.

dear me

I thought you would know what this means Phil

Even I know that means the radiator needs bled!!


Pike - Im sure Dan works for British Gas - Not our Dan, the other dan.

i kinda new - but i've just never done it!

i'm sure i saw my dad do it once when i was a nipper - and he got covered in brown water

yr dad covered you in mucky stuff??

just twist it left till it feels loose and u will hear a hissing noise, at this point ready yourself for action (maybe have a strong coffee before hand)....... after maybe 20 seconds water will SHOOOOT out of the hole, this is where u spring into action!! turn the key right to tighten it up and that it yr done

Whats the question mate?

im time served

Once this bit is done you may have to top up the system at the boiler as the water pressure in the heating system may be low.

SEE PIKE - extra info i could have missed!!

ta

Like MOS has got a combi, he's still got a tin bath

aye, this hoose has an immersion in. pah.

MOS - Get yourself a bleed key from your nearest plumb centre or merchant. There'll be a nipple on the top corner of your rad. Like Pike says just turn it to the left and the air will start to come out. It might be worth getting some toilet roll to catch the water when it eventually does come out (as heating water can be minging) that way you wont stain your missus' nice carpets!

a-thank-you!

even i can bleed a radiator
