My radiator is cold! || How to fix your cold radiator

Check us out at www.scunthorpeboilers.com/
This video could be useful if you have 1 or 2 problem radiators on your heating system that are not heating up (Generally if it is the TRV sticking you will get heat at the pipe to the valve but not beyond.
Steps:
1- Remove the Thermostatic valve head revealing the pin (Most of them have a collar that you unscrew counter clockwise)
2- Hit the pin gently with a hammer until you feel the pin release (Take care not to hit it at an angle and damage the pin)
3- Put the Thermostatic valve head back on turning clockwise
4- Give yourself a pat on the back, you just saved a callout fee
If your problem persists, you may have a blockage in the pipework due to poor water quality. This is more common in older conventional systems with a hot water cylinder and header tank in the loft but can still happen if you have a combi boiler or sealed system.
If this is the case, consult a professional as you may need a powerflush on your heating system.
If you have the system flushed out, ensure the tank in the loft is cleaned out and inhibitor is put into the system once filled back up.

[@Standing_on_the_word]

No no that's to much force you can damage or cause it leak. Just tap on the side or use a grip pliers & work it up & down a bit till you feel the heat go through it.

Hi buddy.
My room radiator doesn't work on low numbers (between 1-4). But when I set it on 4 or above, it starts working but it over heats the room. What could be the issue and how can it be solved ?

[@Cvbbj670]

Lucky you didn’t get scolded
Seen my boss do that and the pin flew out

[@mommychrissy]

Ohhh no

[@2icelollys1goat]

Replace what exactly? TRV or rad?

[@MrLegend139]

Ngl I did this with mine as one of my trvs was seized up and it released it 😂

[@MrLegend139]

Note I was in a position to change the valve but that did the trick so didn’t bother

[@kookaburrakookaburra]

Cowboy way, need to drain all the water after isolation, entire system will need a chemical pumped into remove calcium buildup, then flushed then bled etc.

[@urielmontoya8413]

I was expecting that to break off.
