OK so this may stupid question, but...

I removed radiator so we could decorate/renovate and i don't know when / if it will be connected but we do not have hot water..

We have a combi boiler !

Is it because i have interrupted the flow there's no hot water ?

It may be a couple of weeks before i reconnect the radiator...do i have to wait till then before hot water is resumed ??
 
Most Combi Boilers have a small pressure gauge on the front or just underneath the appliance. Does yours?

If the needle is pointing below say, 0.5 bar, or is pointing into a 'red zone', look in the user instructions under the section 'restoring correct pressure' or similar.

(NB this is generic advice, some boilers have a digital gauge and need buttons pushed to activate display)

DH

Oh, yeah, is the electric supply still on at the boiler?
 
If the system needs 'topping up' to bring it to pressure then there should be a 'filling loop' ( do an image search on the web) that is usually left connected, under the boiler , it connects the cold water to the heating circuit via a valve and stop tap, open this up you will hear water entering and the pressure should rise. It should fill quickly. Good luck.
