where on earth might the pump be??

[marie-clare]

hello again.
i have had a plumber to look at my attic radiator that is cold at the top and hot at the bottom and he thinks it might need flushing (£45-is that reasonable?)
antway he didn't think it was the pump but we couldn't find the pump....what does it look like? is it inside a tank or separate?
i have looked by the tanks and in the kitchen and by the boiler-but i dont really know what i'm looking for anyway-sorry but ive got to start somewhere!!

cold at the top and hot at the bottom

The pump has nowt to do with this problem!

The rad just needs bleeding

Try a different plumber or bleed the rad yourself

i've bled the radiator a million times and a bit of air comes and then no more air comes any more and i never get any water out.

Make sure there is water in the header tank.

If the ballvalve arm isn't stuck in the 'up' position you may have a blocked feed pipe.

Remember to bleed rads only when the heating is turned off
