Hi all,
I have a radiator in my house which one day decided to go dead cold and I haven't been able resolve for years.
I've now resulted to lifting the floor boards to try to resolve. The pipe branch leading to the radiator is also cold. There is a isolation valve fitted in a extremely awkward position on this branch which is in such a position I can't see whether it is open to allow flow to the radiator.
My question is, assuming the valve is closed should the pipework leading up to the valve stay warm.
If it should stay warm, this indicates the problem is further down the line, or is it a case that the entire branch before the valve can go cold by isolating.
Thanks for any help
