Hello I am doing my house up and I have had to remove all the central heating pipes and I need to put them all back in again but as time is ticking by I need to put a little bit of heat back into the kitchen room as no kitchen is fitted as yet, so I put a radiator on the wall and connected it all up great tested it over night for any leaks and nothing so tonight I turned on the boiler the 22mm flow pipes heat up hot but the radiator didn’t I created a 22mm return link within the pipes to allow for hot water to flow out of the boiler to save damage
I am thinking that the hot water is going round the 22mm pipe faster than the 15m. Copper pipe to the radiator and I’m guessing there isn’t enough pressure to force hot water down to the radiator for it to warm up?
Please see the photo of the only pipes I have connected the connection is only temporary until I get more time to install all the copper pipe to the other 5 radiators should I put a reduction tap in to allow more hot water pressure to build up thus forcing it to the radiator
