3 radiators cold

PJH07 · 30 Oct 2004

I have a 3 radiators (out of 7) which are cold.
1 (double) of which is upstairs they are the furthest away from the boiler. I have tried bleeding them. All 7 rads have thermo\\\' valves. The system was installed in the 80\\\'s. Any ideas? Really appreciate any advice Thanks

THANKS FOR THE ADVICE. I HAVE TAKEN THE 3 OFFENDING RADS OFF AND FLUSHED OUT. STILL COLD! I AGREE WITH YOU MATE IT LOOKS LIKE THE TRV'S ARE NO GOOD. HOW DO YOU CHECK TO SEE IF THEY ARE STUCK AND IS THERE ANY WAY OF FREEING THEM OFF OR DO THEY JUST NEED REPLACING. CHEERS FOR ANY TIPS.
