Default Any plumber on here.. Help needed

Evening,

I was wondering if anyone could offer some help. We are having trouble getting the central heating to work at home. The pump was changed a month ago after the system failed.

We lost heating yesterday throughout the house and tried flushing the system this evening. The rads upstairs heat up properly when I am draining from the outlet tap but nothing downstairs.

Any ideas as getting pretty cold here.

Thanks

Andy

Default central heating

make sure there is water in all the system ,turn all the radiators off by the valves on the rads just one side will do, then open up the cold rads one at a time until they get heat flowing round them , what should happen the furthest rad from the boiler needs the valve opening the most and the closest rad the valve should just be open ,may help ya
