Hello everyone! I'm a new member to this forum but the posts seemed very helpful and I was hoping to see if anyone could give me any information about my problem since I am completely clueless about plumbing.
I live in flats with a communal central heating system and a new boiler was recently installed however since that time and during the whole christmas period I have got no heating from the radiators in my flat. The radiators used to work perfectly before then but the management agency in my building is being a complete nightmare and keep telling me the problem is with my own radiators and they will not be able to do anything. I have asked other people in the building and they have had no heating too although some others say that they are okay. I have had problems with my radiators leaking before and the agency said this is due to the fact that the radiators have been moved too far away from the risers that serve them. Although once I changed the old radiators I had no problems with the heating up and till the new boiler was installed but they claim that my problem is ultimately the result again of the radiators being too far away from the risers that serve them even though they also mention that there has been an underground leak affecting some of the flats in my side of the building but they still argue that even fixing that will not solve my problem. No one has actually checked my radiators and I have also bled them to see if there is a bubble but only cold water comes out. I'm so sorry for the long post but I just wanted to know if there was an actual way to check that the problem is due to my radiators being too far away from their risers (though I am also unsure about what this actually means) and also shouldn't that mean that the radiators which are in their original untouched position be working? Sorry again for the long post and I would be grateful for any help!!!
