The point being yes they do have them on each end whether or not they are supposed to be, the point is they doThe point being you don’t have a thermostatic radiator valve on each end of the radiator do you
I believe the one radiator has never got as hot as rest and I asked fitter if it was flushed and he said yes BUT as to whether he did or not I could not tell you. What would a system clean involve as I was here most of the time he was and tried to watch all he didWere all the rads well working before and was the system cleaned as part of the new boiler installation?
No need for sarcasm merely asking. Clearly wrong I suspect neither trv is bi directional. Take a pic further back to get both ends inThe point being yes they do have them on each end whether or not they are supposed to be, the point is they do
Funny enough the rad thats not heating properly is the only one with a lockshield valve the other four all have the two of the TRV'SIt could be a circulation problem but if the rad with two TRV's is the one that doesn't get up to temp I'd get someone in to investigate that first. Extremely odd.
Sorry not a clue what that is or how I would use it
Sorry Tim but that 'thing' you posted the link to re balancing is a pile of junk.
Not sure what a pic will show you its the same as pic already posted but on both ends of radWithout any images we are scuppared and with the OP's abruptness at our crystal ball not working we may never know...
thanks to all repliers but all I wanted to know was whether I could 'balance' rads using the TRV'S and should I leave one end open and adjust the other or adjust both.
Since asking I have tried turning rads off and the colder rad did get hot so guess I just need to play around adjusting them til i get a sort of balance
