Hello, the radiator in our bedroom has never worked since we moved into the house. All the other radiators upstairs and downstairs are hot but this one is stone cold. The feed pipe going in is hot but the valve is cold. The pipe going out of the radiator is cold.
I removed the radiator this weekend and flushed it out, refitted and bled it. The radiator was then hot but only stayed hot for about an hour. While the radiator was off the wall I opened both valves and drained some water into a bucket. The outlet pipe was fine (water hot and coming out full bore) but the inlet pipe seemed to be blocked (just a trickle of hot water coming out).
I think maybe the valve is knackered or the pipe is blocked. If the pipe is blocked, how could I unblock it??
Thanks
