Evening guys, Just wanted to pick some brains about an issue i'm currently having with a vertical rad on a 1 pipe heating system.
Kitchen that has been converted into an open plan kitchen diner. We've taken out a large double rad and installed 2 single verticals in different locations. One rad isnt getting any heat at all. Have tried balancing the system even closing all lockshields throughout the property and can't get any heat to one of the rads. I thought it was an issue with a blockage or air lock inside the rad as when i opened the nut of the lockshield and pulled through with the wet vac it heated up straight away. Both radiators are exactly the same and fitted in the same way with the same valves etc. Can't quite work it out!
Boiler is a new Vailant heat only fitted by an engineer around 6 months ago.
