Offerd to help my brother remove a radiator tonight as he is having a wall knocked out.We started by turning off water and draining system.
We then removed rad and capped pipes,job done we thought.
Problem we have is,after refilling system only rads upstairs are getting warm,downstairs are stone cold.
He has a Concord boiler,approx 20 years old,with an immersion heater in airing cupboard and storage tank in loft.
After refilling system we turned on all taps to free air and water is piping hot.We then bled all rads untill water running clear but when heating turned on only rads upstairs got hot..
Will the heat eventually filter down stairs or should we do something else???
