Hello
I have a problem with 2 radiators in my house. I have Gas heating (installed within last 7 years).
2 radiators upstairs (in adjacent rooms) are lukewarm at best to touch, I have had numerous plumbers out, power flush done, system flush done, radiators no sludge, radiators are now taken...
Hi all,
Just found this forum and it looks great! Forgive me if I could have found this answer by looking longer—I've searched for a while.
I am in a cold walk-up apartment on the 4th floor of a turn-of-the-century building in Brooklyn. Not sure how old the heating/boiler system is. In my...
Hi all,
Recently moved into a house that appears to have some not-so-effective radiators (some are very hot so am confident no issue with the boiler).
The worst offender is an angled double radiator in a bay window (measures 450mm high and 240mm long). It barely gets hot despite the flow pipe...
I’ve just replaced my radiator, from an old 104cm type 10 to a new 100cm type 22.
On one side the pipes connect to the valve fine.
The other side - the radiator is around an inch from the wall and pipe.
How do I connect the valve to the inlet?
I cannot move the pipe as it comes from a concrete...
I have recently bought an ex-council flat that uses communal heating for the radiators. When I moved in, I discovered there was no valve on the radiator on the living room so I cannot easily turn off the radiator. Is there a way to attach, or will I just have to manually turn on and off the...
Hi All,
I am new to this forum and wanted advise on this situation
We recently refurbished our house including installing a new combi boiler and radiators. Our plumber has decided to install a drainage valve in the hallway to our nice looking radiator without asking if we would want it...
Hi
I'm new to this forum and the only reason I've joined is so somebody can help me with noisy radiator issues!
We moved into this house in March and we've been experiencing issues with two radiators in the upstairs bedrooms ever since.
We can hear the sounds of water sloshing and some...
Hi, we want to upgrade our downstairs radiators from normal ones to new cast iron ones. We have had a quote from Castrads and the quality looks great but they are twice as expensive as another similar option. Are they significantly better please? What should we be looking for? We want them to be...
My apologies as this question has probably been asked loads of times.
We moved into a new house in Jan which has an oil boiler, the room that houses the boiler is always warm, sometimes like an oven.
The radiator that's directly above where the boiler is is always on, mainly warm but sometimes...
Hi, we’ve just had a new large vertical radiator added to a previously fully working heating system. This new radiator only gets hot when all the other radiators are off. When the other radiators are on, the new radiator remains cold. All radiators have been bled. Our plumber is suggesting...
I'm trying to put in a new rad. But the rad sits about 10mm further from the wall than the old pipes come out of the ground.
I've tried taking away a bit of tile to push the pipes back but they are locked in place.
What I probably need is a copper pipe with a very small, 10mm, bend in it...
Hi we have recently had new rads and combi boiler and fit the Drayton wiser smart TRVs we brought with us from our old house (i.e. each rad has a thermostat and can call for heat independently). We have the hallway radiator without a TRV at the moment as recommended by the installers that one...
Hi, I have a standard radiator (1/2" female bsp) on which I'm installing a new lockshield/TRV kit. The lockshield is similar to this:
What happens if I remove the nut and everything on its left in the pic, and screw the valve directly into the radiator (with PTFE)?
This would simplify my space...
Long story short - the pipework in all my upstairs bedrooms are now suddenly ticking / knocking under the floorboard when I switch the heating on (for a good few minutes) and the same again when I switch it off (lasts longer)
Nothing has changed since a few years ago when we changed the...
Hi,
Looking for advice on easiest way to move a radiator (only needs to move 10-15cm to the left). I have a unvented indirect cyclinder, fed from a standard boiler. All my pipework runs down from the loft (its a bungalow), through the walls and each radiator has a centrally located outlet on...
Hello, i've posted on here as it seems there are a few single pipe experts.
I've installed a big column rad with normal valves (no TRV) on a single pipe system, i have done this in 2 other rooms with good success and continue to get very hot. The rest of the house is on a 2 pipe system and...
I have this water pump. Can anyone tell me what the difference is between Min, Med, Max and C1, C2, C3. And what do the Icons mean above them?
I have tried reading manuals but they don't really say.
Hi Guys
So purchased my 1950ish ex RAF house in 2014 and it has a mix of single or double panel, no convector horrid looking Rads. They also perform crap. Sure they get nice and hot, almost scolding in some cases as I've wound the TRVs wide open as they simply don't heat the whole room very...

So we are currently in the process of decorating our lounge which is 4.6 x 3.6 x 2.5m with a aluminium double glazed door of...
Hi, I am looking for some help with a problematic radiator and have no experience with heating systems. I have a bit of time pressure as we have a new carpet being fitted in a few weeks and a sofa arriving the following week and have uncovered this radiator issue whilst redecorating the room...
