    Default one pipe heating system

    changed a rad over today on a one pipe system, it took ages to drain down, and when i filled it back up and got heating going it took ages to warm up one rad at a time.

    never really worked on a 1 pipe system before i just hope that now its hot when it goes off and comes back on again it dosent take ages to heat up.
