Cold rad

[Bugsie]

Hi. I have one cold rad but it dosen't have a TRV fitted. All other rads ok.
Any ideas?

Im not a plumber but I think that can happen if the radiators need balancing. Plumbers feel free to correct me if im wrong.

How cold is rad, has the system been worked on recently, is it fed from above, on a drop, are both rad valves open!

You're probably wrong. But then again, so am I most of the time

Hi all. Looked at previous replies where it was suggested to turn all other rads off to force flow through this one- and it worked! So I presume it was an airlock.
So do I need to balance the system?

Good idea.

Look in the FAQs.
