Hi all,

Sorry for the basic question, but one radiator in one my new ( old house ) house doesn't heat up, its a 15mm pipes but the rest of the system is on 10mm so it has reducers close to the rad. I have opened the taps fully and notice that the left-hand side pipe is warm, when the heating is on, but not the radiator. I have bled the rad tap and get no gas, only water.

Any ideas or actions?

Thanks

Remove the trv head does the pin push in (easy) you can use the top of the head?
