Hello, Im currently planning on replacing my bathroom. I need some advice on the Rad which is a gravity feed rad that is ugly and pointless. i believe its only on when the boiler gets to hot for the hot water tank and therefore only heats the rad as a heat sink from the hot water tank. Or it...

Whats this valve ment to do, could it be worth replacing it. Would this explain my air going through the pump causing a hunting for water sound.
