Hello all. I have a bit of a dilemma.
I recently completed my loft extension and I'd fitted 3 upright radiators up there. These ones
1780 x 280mm Anthracite Double Flat Panel Vertical Radiator
The radiators do not get hot apart from when the system is drained and refilled.
When the system is drained and refilled, the radiators get very hot for about 1 day, but then after that they only get hot along the bottom bar, but the rest of the radiator doesn't heat up.
I've balanced the entire system. Same problem. I've even turned off all the other radiators around the house, when I do this they get hot but again only for a few hours.
I've even switched over the flow and return pipes as they enter the loft but again same problem, the radiators do not get hot for long.
I've contacted Radiator Outlet who I brought them from but again not really much help.
There's no indicator on the radiator to say which way is up and which way is down. Could these have been installed upside down?
