We have a vertical radiator in the loft. All the rads were balanced and the vertical radiator was heating up fine. But after about 7-10 days found it wasn’t heating up as well. When I bleed it no air comes out and after about 20 secs hot water finally starts coming out and the radiator warms up as normal. But after 7-10 days have the same problem. The only way of getting it to heat properly is to bleed it for about 20 secs and letting soMe water out. I know I shouldnt be doing this but don’t know what else to do to get the radiator working properly for more than a week.
had this problem for about 2 years and thought it might be because of a old boiler not being able to cope with the extra radiators. But recently had a Intergas xclusive36 installed and the system was power flushed.
the flow and returns are connected properly (there a red marker behind the radiator).
the radiator next to it in the bathroom heats up no problem.
Pls any suggestions?
