Well, I followed your balancing procedure and my cold rad is now hot! Thank you so much D_Hailsham, you have helped me so much you can't imagine! This had been causing so much stress for such a long time! I will soon be using my brand new WARM dining room! :D :D :D :D Thank you to...

I have thought about getting an RF roomstat because it saves the hassle of so much wiring, but I'll tackle that another time once this problem is fixed! What make/model is the TRV on the HW cylinder? It's a Drayton, can't see a model; it's just a dead basic TRV.

I might sound dim but I don't know! There is no separate HW setting as such on my heating timer. The HW is turned on via a TRV attached to the cylinder. I know from expreience that having the HW on anywhere near full reduces the heat to the rads, so the HW is usually off or on the bare minimum...

I have always had the same problem since I moved in, but the room hasn't been in use for various reasons. I now need to use it so need to heat it! Yes there are TRV's on all the rads, and a new one on the new rad which still won't heat up. When balancing the rads I got pipe thermometers...

Apologies in advance for the long post, but I want to outline everything I've tried so far to give a full picture. The radiator furthest from the boiler (Gas Boiler; Ideal Concord WRS355A) only heats up if any 2 or 3 other radiators are turned off. Even then it gets warm but not really hot...
