Good evening,
My radiators in my home heat up fine apart from one that is close to the airing cupboard upstairs. It is hot at the bottom and cold at the top, so I have to bleed it regularly, which gets it going again, but now when I bleed, no air or water comes out. The top remains cold, the middle and bottom are piping hot. This radiator was recently changed and the issue remains on the new one. I have opened the lockshield and trv fully, and still cannot get water or air to come out of the bleed valve. The rest of the radiators in the home are piping hot all over.
I thought I would have a look in my airing cupboard and I have noticed a pressure gauage that seems to be on 0. Please see images, it says the same when the heating is off too. The needle does not move.
Does this mean there is not enough water in the system? I remember when I changed the old radiator (changed due to sheering off bleed nipple), there was barely any water in it when I removed it.
I am not sure what the problem is? Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
