Yes it’s a new modern full size radiator. It’s 600x600. I’ll check back on here tomorrow and check out your suggestions

I’ve done all of that, kids are in bed now so gonna head there myself. If you could suggest something else for me to try tomorrow I will do. Hubby is off work tomorrow too, or is it a case of the plumbing being wrong way around on the new rad and I need to get my brother back out?

Sorry, I got all confused cos I didn’t realise someone else had replied. I’ll go do that now

Sorry do you mean disconnect all the pipework from the new feed and rad?

Just checked the pipes coming off the boiler and they’re all cold

Boiler pressure is showing 1.7 Shall I turn everything back on on the other rads and get him to change the plumbing round?

It was late when he finished as he came after work so I told him to go and I’d let him know if it heated up. He said airlock what would you suggest for an aggressive bleed? All radiators are cold but all other radiators are turned off at the TRV and wheel head (bathroom one without a TRV)

I’m wondering now if the flow and return were right before and does it maybe need balancing? The living room radiators are hen they eventually come on are cold at the bottom and hot at top. When we had the boiler fitted they did a Magna flush on the system

Boiler shows it’s heating and the nest is showing as on

How long should I leave it for? Absolutely no change on the new rad, pipes and rad are cold

Thanks trying that now.

So the ones with TRV do I just turn A to off or is it B? And then the wheelheads is it A or B?

With pliers

So I can’t just turn the top but that sticks up clockwise?

Sorry for all the questions but which side is the wheel head, my bathroom rad has lockshields on both sides?
