Yes - have bled and water comes out so I assume no air present.

We live in a 4 storey town house. All of the rads get hot apart from the kitchen (ground floor) We have a vailant condensing boiler which is newish. All of the rads apart from 1 have TRV's. The rad in the kitchen is a 2 panel rad - the rear panel gets warm (although far from hot) but...

We have a chafeteau and Maury system boiler (gas). It is about 8 years old and has been regularly serviced. A couple of weeks ago it locked out - the red lockout light was illuminated. The reset button does not bring it back to life. If it is turned off and then back on it will ignite and...
