Thanks to all who offered me advice. After doing what Jay suggested, there was a small airlock in the feed pipe, I turned off all rads and that seemed to force the airlock out. All is now working :P Thanks again Worz

No TRV's just normal valves. I did as Jay suggested and removed rad. Should i get flow from both sides? the what i think is flow flows freely but the other side?(gets hot) just tricles unless the pump is running? Thanks again Worz

No its not that, its a 'myson he' I have quite a few and the others are to hot to touch!

StevenJames... I just used the pipes that fed the existing rad, just had to add a bit of pipe to move to the new position. The old rad used to heat up ok. It wont be correctly balanced as I have been turning everything off and on to try and force air or hot water into the affected rad...

Jay.... No microbore that I am aware of. The feed and flow seem to be mainly 22mm going down to 15mm near this dodgy rad. Its open vented I think that's what its called, has a header tank. Thanks again worz

hmmm, with most of the rads in the house turned off, this rad now warms up after following jays advice, it doesnt get really hot to the touch like the other few i left on do? I have now turned all back on, and the dodgy rad is not heating up anymore. I have bled all rads, most didnt need it...

I shall give that a go right after lunch :) Thanks Worz

I just used old fashioned valves. Worz Maybe I should :?

Hey all some advice needed please. I just installed a new radiator, replacing an old one, but I had to do a bit of new pipework, valves etc. This rad is not getting hot, there is water in the rad, the feed pipe up to my valve is red hot, but the rad itself is not getting hot? Any ideas...

Thanks gents :) and sorry for not using the search :oops: Worz

Hi, I am just after a guide price for hanging some internal doors. There will be 13 doors, 9 will be solid wood and 4 glazed. How much am I looking at either per door or the job, and how long would it take. Thanks guys, just trying to sort my budget out. Regards Worz

Thanks very much for your help, I will have another look at the weekend. Worz

After my previous success :) I now want to install a PIR in the zone 2 i previously linked out. I am pretty sure i know how to wire it, looking at the others, however the red and black wires(power i am assuming) need to be added to an already stuffed hole, when i remove all the reds for...

Thanks again all. You have eased my worries. I think I will have a little dig to open the hole a bit. Then gently persuade it back in place. A job for the weekend I feel. Cheers Worz

Itss 15mm pipe, and the length of the pipe is about 15cm. There is no bend as such, the whole thing is just away from the wall, I just didnt want to try and push it back if i am likely to crease/snap it.

Thanks for the fast response :) Well, like I said the center of the screw is approx 2-3 cm away from where it needs to be to marry up with the rad pipe. There is no obvious crease where it is bent, the whole pipe is just no longer where it used to be.

Hi, I have a slight problem. We had some plastering done recently, so I removed radiators so that the walls were clear, now I have gone to replace them, I notice the Builders have bent one of the copper pipes away from the wall. It is about 3cm out now. I am a bit nervous about just bending...

The whole area is about 33 sqm and it slopes away to a maximum of about 8mm on one door and 5 mm on another. The slope is approx 50 cm length ways. Cheers Worz
