Need a little help...
I was putting up some blinds and I fell back and stepped onto the radiator, it came off the wall and pipe snapped. Plumber came out and fixed the pipe. I have since then put the rad back on the wall and connected back onto the system.
Now I have only to rads (upstairs) working, one hot one warm. All other rads in the house are stone cold.
I have bled all rads (alot) and only water has come out (clear water) no air. I have increased the pressure in the combi Boiler (BAXI) up to around 2.5 to try and push any blocked air. I have closed the two rads working....two different rads then start to work, I close these as well and then another 2 rads start to work......yep, I closed these and the last two came on. I then opened all the rads again two at a time and I was back to where I started.....two working upstairs and none downstairs.
At desperation I took a friends advice and went around all the exposed pipes hitting them with a hammer.....no joy.
Oh and I should mention the boiler kicks in and blast the heat straight up to 80c and then cuts out, temp drops to arounf 30c and then it kicks in a gain and blasts up to 80c.
Any ideas, I'm at a complete loss...!!
