Bleed radiator

[sebastienj]

Hi,

One of my radiator does not bleed air or water. It is hot but I know there is air inside since I can hear it. How can I solve this?

Thanks

Bleed screw hole blocked , turn off radiator each end, remove fitting from radiator, cheep enough just replace it.

what sort of age is your radiator? I've had this before with an older one, even taking the bleed screw completely out you get nothing. I solved it by getting a pin and poking it in the bleed hole as it was gunked up. be careful though and keep the bleed screw close to hand to put back in quickly if this solves the problem..

Make sure pump is turned off, otherwise radiator might be sucking air.

And turn the heating off

ok thanks for the advice, i'll try to see if the hole is blocked
