Hi
one of my radiators has never been the hottest, but its seems to be getting worse, its always the last to warm up and at best is lukewarm and cold at the bottom. This is a downstairs radiator and is fitted with a drayton thermostatic valve. The feed pipe at roasting hot.
Questions
1,is the radiator slunged up, can I test for this?
2, is the valve not working correctly (its set at max), is there anyway to manually open the valve fully, or test the valve operation.
hope you can help
thanks
