Radiator problem

[Akshay]

Ok here's my problem. The radiator in the kitchen has stopped working recently but all others in the flat are ok. The pipes leading to it are cold - so what is wrong with the system?

They're connected up to a combi boiler.

Check the system pressure on the front of the boiler.... does the radiator need bled???

There are other possibilities but would need more info.... do you have trv's????

Forgive my ignorance but what are TRV's? The boiler was low on water recently which caused it to shut down but once I filled it up all was fine apart from that particular radiator not working.

thermostatic rad valve.

Sounds like it needs bled.... Give it a go.... There could be something else, but based on your pressure fault, it prob needs bled
