    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Still a trickling sound but not as bad. Which is why I'm thinking of using an upside down lockshield.

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Nige F - I'm bleeding with the pump off. Agile - Yes, the first tube (RHS) gets hot first then the last tube (LHS) gets hot. Over time the middle six then start to catch up. After about 15 minutes (or so) the radiator has an even temperature all over. This afternoon I've changed the type of...

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Nearly right. So the diverter is now bottom right. But the flow is in through the lockshield and out through the TRV. The TRV is marked as bi-directional (Drayton TRV4). It obviously makes better aesthetic design to have it out on the open side for easier adjustment but would it make better...

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Radiator turned over and now lovely and hot. But I am disappointed by the 'trickling' noise as the water flows. I keep trying to bleed it but just water flows out. The bleed screw is opposite the flow and the lockshield is open 2 turns. I can see that the bleed screw is on the end of the top...

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Seven years (with some support from this forum) to find out the solution is so obvious. I wonder how many vertical radiators are in the same state. Must get on to the fitter to exercise a 7 year warranty!

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    Great. If there is a plug in the top that would explain the problem. I did think about a change to the pipes to put the flow in to the top right (the TRV is on the return). But if there is a hidden diverter would this stop the flow getting to the left hand side of the radiator?

    Vertical Radiator Flow

    About 7 years ago I asked for help on flow in my system... https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/bypass-valve-still-flowing-when-fully-wound-down.249725/ I lived with this last radiator giving mostly poor output but now all my other radiators have been renewed with brand new Drayton TRV4 valves...

    Neff Oven loose control knob fixed

    I have a Neff Combination Microwave that has suffered a loose selection knob. The Oven is their B6774 built in. The (timer) selector knob has become very loose but I fixed it today. Both selector knobs are identical but I ordered one new one for about £30. The problem has become worse with it's...

    Bypass Valve still flowing when fully wound down

    It's possible that the system was running with low protection initially because I'm worried that changing out components was not matched by topping up the Fernox. But after the Power Flush I saw the inibitor going in. Thanks for the Step by Step. I've done the bailing out and removing all...

    Bypass Valve still flowing when fully wound down

    I'll try the magnet check and see what I've got. Does the scum on the feed tank give you any indications?

    Bypass Valve still flowing when fully wound down

    Just a thought (on the Feed Tank) Could the system be flowing back up the feed pipe when the pressure gets too high. There is an air collector in the system which the feed connects to.
