Removal Raditor

[stuarti1]

Hi ,

some guidance please.... I have removed two radiators both had TRV i capped the pipes refilled the system,, all the radiators work in the house accept one that feed off the one of the radiators i have removed.... i pulled up the floor boards and noticed the pipes were cold .... . much appreciated for the help on this .. hope the above makes sense ...

No. Why drain system to remove radiators?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

sounds like air trapped in dead legs / pipes to disconnect rads

 

[stuarti1]

i am permanently removing them from the system thinking i could have trapped air in the pipe?

 

[stuarti1]

Any idea how i can get it removed .....

 

[SimonG]

It will be air then or displaced some muck.

 

[SimonG]

Shut all rads down bar the cold one.

Hi,

thanks for the advice, i have tried all of the above and the pipes are still not getting warm, thinking the TRV on the cold radiator is faulty/blocked...would that stop the pipes leading to the rad from being cold as the water is not circulating

Remove the non warming radiator do you get flow at both valves

 

[stuarti1]

the branch from the CH used to feed anther radiator which has been removed and capped i can trace the pipes to as close as i can get to the CH main pipe... it gets look warm close to the main CH pipes but i dont feel much a flow to the cold rad.. so guessing the TRV valve is stuck on the cold rad....?
