Radiator needs bleeding A LOT

[thediynovice]

Hi

Our central heating system is working fine, except for the bathroom radiator that constantly needs bleeding. Since November I must have done it about 5 times, and every time loads of air comes out.

Why would I be getting air in this ONE radiator?

I have an open system.

Thanks in advance.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks.

i dont know much about central heating etc. but is the radiator in the bathroom at a higher level than the rest? either that or i would presume that there is maybe a faulty join that lets in air just before the bathroom radiator...

but like i said, dont take my word for it

It`s getting in somewhere due to any number of causes.just happens to collect in one rad...Dunno why, y`see none of the systems I installed did that, or made noises, or rotted out in a few years , or didn`t heat the rooms enough
