Radiator not working

Hugh Rynal · 25 Feb 2008

The radiator in my utility room stopped being hot a few days ago. I tried bleeding it but no air came out, just water straight away. The valve is set to the highest setting and no one has turned it off. All other radiators are working fine.

Any ideas.

My money is on a stuck thermostatic valve.

has it got a thermostatic valve?

If you mean a valve with numbers 1-6 on it, then yes. It is currently on number 6. The valve does turn so does not appear stuck. Do you mean the internal workings are stuck ?
