Could it be a garden tap?
Unusual - maybe draining two low points in the heating circuit?

Stab in the dark but because you said with more force could it be to drain a cold water tank?
I did the same when I replumbed my heating. How else could you fully drain the flow and return?
i see you live in a district that never has freezing temperatures.

It's no big deal just drain them both. Two is better than one or so they say. Always check if the washers need replacing. And fill that gap around the pipes.

could you elaborate a little further
Our property has two, and when I moved some radiators a few years ago I drained both - but didn't really know what I was draining - LOL
That is a rather sweeping statement, with a large possibility of being simply wrong. The OP needs to trace what the the drains are designed to drain, rather than guess - maybe label them for the next time.
Sweeping statement my ass its basic central heating installation practise
Did you let it run for a bit?
