Hello all, hope you are able to help.

Since having a 1 new radiator installed and 1 replaced, been having problems with a cold radiator. Have bled all radiators in the house, quite a bit of air initially, but has not helped.

Which radiator is cold keeps changing though. If I go to the cold radiator and turn up the trv a couple of notches, it heats up very quickly, but the next one (not sure if it's next or previous) radiator then goes cold. I feel like I'm chasing air around the system but can't catch it. The process then repeats. The cold radiator can be on either ground or first floor.

I'm a fairly competent diyer, but plumbing is new to me, any ideas before I call back the plumber?
 
Sounds like it may be a balancing issue but you need to open all the TRvs fully and balance using the lockshield end.
