Hi,

One of my radiators has developed a trickling sound once the heating is on. This used to only happen as it first turned on and then it went away, now it is constant when the heating is on. After some research I understand this to mean there is some air trapped in the radiator (though the whole thing still gets hot), and the way to fix this is to bleed it.

Only problem is I can’t find a bleed valve. I’ve attached photos of the radiator, and the two places where I would expect a valve to be. Neither have a bleed screw, but both have a flat-head screwdriver type slot, and one of them has a very small hole. Is that a non-standard bleed valve?

Thanks
