Hi all, I am new here and looking for some advice.
I recently installed a towel radiator in the bathroom to replace the old radiator. The towel radiator will not heat up. So far I have tried:
Does it matter which side the Trv and bleed nipple are on? Currently, both are on right-hand side of rad
Went under house and could feel that the 22mm pipe which feeds the 15mm pipes for this rad is warm but the 15mm pipes are cold.
Property is a bungalow with Combi in loft
I recently installed a towel radiator in the bathroom to replace the old radiator. The towel radiator will not heat up. So far I have tried:
- Turning off all other rads
- Bleeding all rads
- Checked that TRV and lock valve are fully open
- Closed both valves, dissipated residual air pressure from bleed nipple, removed bleed nipple, screwed in a drain cock with a hose attached, opened trv side and allowed gurgling to stop. Repeated on lock side. (At this point warm water flows into rad), close valves, remove drain cock, bleed nipple back in, bleed air, open both valves, turn heating back on...........COLD!!
