Radiator noise issue

[hungledink]

I live in a flat with 6 radiators, 4 of which have a temperature selection control (1-5) on them. The one in my living room is noisy on levels 4 and 5, very noisy on 4 but less so on 5. The noise is some sort of rushing noise which I presume is water flowing through the valves.

Today I had cause to turn the kitchen radiator down while the central heating was operating and noticed this caused the noise in my living room radiator to disappear. The noise returned however, the next time the central heating kicked in. I discovered I can now stop the noise on my living room radiator by adjusting the temperature on the kitchen radiator

Any ideas what this might indicate? The system itself is only 18 months or so old.

I've previously posted about this issue here //www.diynot.com/forums/plumbing/rushing-sound-from-radiator-valve.342716/

Maybe your turning into a dog and therefore have a heightened sence of hearing.
I would consult a Doctor ( or vet ) asap.

Thanks, that's very helpful.

Your system needs to be balanced. see FAQ.

The system may well be balanced. Adjust the pump speed if you can.
