Hi, hoping for some advice with radiators that I don't seem to be able to bleed. This is my second winter in a new build. The towel rail was making a knocking/pinging noise last winter so when I recently had my boiler serviced the engineer adjusted some screws on the rail itself and it's...

Afternoon, Recently had a new boiler fitted with new radiators, old radiators were the old steel type. The installer recommended reducing the size as the new panels are more efficient, which we were happy to do. Now, I believe that for the output of the boiler the radiators are too small/not...

Hi all, Just found this forum and it looks great! Forgive me if I could have found this answer by looking longer—I've searched for a while. I am in a cold walk-up apartment on the 4th floor of a turn-of-the-century building in Brooklyn. Not sure how old the heating/boiler system is. In my...

My bathroom radiator is very hot in a small room and I would like to shut it off but can’t work out how. There are two valves one at each side at the bottom with a small prong sticking out of each one. I don’t know what the difference is between them or even if that is what I have to turn or how!

I am having problems finding a thermostat for my radiator. The radiator is a Purmo radiator and is about 15 years old. I have tried two replacements but none have fitted.

When replacing 500x900 ( single) radiator with exactly the same size but double the boiler pressure drops. Is this because the radiator requires more water than the original?

Hi, does anyone know what size pipe this is? And what elbow I would need for a like for like swap?
