How old is the radiator in question?
This problem has been there alway if it is a leak I think I would have found it by now as I have been under the floor many times for electrical jobs and downstairs is a concrete floor.I Wonder if converting to a sealed system would cure the problem. Thanks again.
Approx 5 years old the problem has always been there.Thanks again
