Dead radiator

The radiator in our en-suite has stopped working. (Probably the worst one in the house so to do.) It's full of water, not air, and I've removed the TRV head & pulled the pin up, so it isn't the TRV stuck shut. So, what could be causing this? And is there anything I can do about it other than getting a plumber in? (BTW, we also have a radiator in the (integral) garage which has never worked, same symptoms. Since I don't care about heating the garage, I've never bothered doing anything about it.) -- Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science. [email me at huge {at} huge (dot) org dot uk] sticking trvs .... most likely the fault. take the head off and tap the pin repeatedly down and this will cause the rubber to come off the seat,try it... it works pete |
