Default Rads don't need balancing...

Comments? I was a little suprised.

I'd be interested to hear some too - my system (12 radiators (11 TRV'd)
on a combi-powered sealed system) is currently unbalanced. Or, perhaps
more accurately, all the lockshields are fully open.

Every radiator works well and heats up at the same rate... so would I
still benefit from 'proper' balancing? Perhaps my feed/turn temperature
differential is potentially 'sub-optimal'?
