Hi Guys,
Just after some clarification of a problem.
Combi system, up to correct pressures, one radiator in house does not get hot and the rest are toasty warm!
Thinking the valves might be faulty, closed flow and return, drained and removed offending rad, opened each valve individually and get a nice powerfull flow of water through both untill pressure drops to zero, so would assume that the valves being faulty and a blockage in pipework is not to blame.
Flushed rad through with mains pressure outside, got some crap out but nothing out of the ordinary, water flowed from one end to the other well whichever position i held the radiator.
Refitted rad and still the same problem.
Closed all other radiators in the house down and at best the offending rad got luke warm!
Hope you agree that the radiator has died as cant think of anything else to try!
Many thanks
