Hi guys
Further to my post of this morning I decided to drain the CH system to remove a towel rad (floor fed). Also bought some Sentinel X400 to give it a clean. This is what I have done:-
1. Turned off boiler
2. Tied up the ball cock in the F&E to stop water
3. Connected hose at lowest rad and started draining
4. Opened upstairs bleed valves
All but 1 downstairs rad are still full and there is no more water coming from the drain hose.
The F&E tank is also not completely empty, sits just above the bottom pipe.
Guessing there is an airlock somewhere? Any ideas on how to totally drain the system.
Help!!!!
