Drained most of my central heating system to repair a leak on a radiator and insert a new and additional drain valve (more convenient location).
The system is a normal vented system.
Turned on the water to refill, header starts to fill and I realise the new tap is not properly closed. So turn off the water again, properly close drain tap, and turn on water to refill system.......
But I cant hear the header filling as expected, and check to find it is full and the water seems to not want to run into the system?? I have the drain taps open and rad. vents open, but the water in the header tank just sits there!!
Help!
Thanks for any ideas or advise,
Matt
