Bleeding Rads

xabi · 2007-09-18 13:21:57

Folks, I switched on the heating last night for the first time in a few months, I had to bleed 3 or 4 rads to get them working. However 2 rads are only heating luke warm, i tried bleeding them, but only luke warm water comes out, no air. Any ideas? X.

Are the taps open on both sides?
You may either have a poorly balanced system or an air-lock.
You could try closing off some of the other hotter rads to force the airlock or such along the pipe and then hope to bleed it off...
