hello: I have a radiator on the top (2nd) floor that would not heat evenly. Bottom was warm to was cold. First I bled the rad but no water came out, just air. I checked the inlet valve by shutting it off and on. water was flowing through the rad but still only air escaped from the bleed valve. I disconnected the inlet and return valves and removed and drained the rad. When I reconnected it and turned on the inlet valve I got nothing. Can't hear any water running at all.
Pump is running. It's fairly new (six years old) Pressure on the boiler is only running at 9psi hot. I don't know how to increase it (if in fact it's a problem at all). All other radiators are fine. Also expansion tank is upstairs, but I don't think it is part of the system anymore. there is a new pressure valve in the water line that I tried adjusting to get more pressure but nothing.
Any help would be appreciated
