Hi,
New to the forum, have done my best to try and work out what the issue is with the radiator in the kitchen, but have gotten nowhere quickly, so thought I'd ask for some assistance.
System Info, let me know if more is required
- Open-vented system (Tank on 2nd Floor)
- Glowworm Ultimate 50FF Boiler (Ground Floor)
- Magnaclean fitted (First Floor near Hot Water Tank)
- Wilo-Yonos Pico Pump (As above)
- 10mm?? plastic pipe to radiators
- 15 year old house/boiler
- previous owners have had X100 and X400 added to CH system
Attempted
- Turning off all radiators, opening the one cold. No change
- Balancing radiators. No Change
- Bleeding the radiator. No air, no change
- Opened Lock shield and drainage, opened TRV, hot water comes through, radiator is warm.
- Removed the return pipe from the radiator, no water came out of it.
- Removed the return pipe from the radiator, opened Lock Shield and TRV, hot water comes through, radiator is warm.
Thoughts
- Feed pipe OK
- Radiator OK
- Return Valve OK
- Return Pipe blocked?
Any thoughts, suggestions or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks
