I live in an old house in the Yorkshire dales, it is known as a typical dales house, as its one room wide and long over 40m.

The house has been extended over the years and the boiler moved and heating loops added. This is giving me problems as the boiler is now at one end of the house (first boiler was in the middle of the first part of the house).

I can’t get all the radiators to heat-up. It seems that one of the loops has no hot water going through it.

I can turn off the cold radiators and it has flow to both ends of the radiators (connecting pipe to vent plug and turning each end on in turn).

What can I do to get all the radiators to heat up?
 
Turn off the radiators that get heat and see if those that don't now heat up. If they do it's probably your pump and if they don't there's probably an obstruction or an air lock.

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
