    I’m disabled and also have crippling anxiety and I live with my elderly granny who’s 84 this year in her big old drafty house and have been pulling our hair out over the heating not working.
    That ended today after watching your clear and concise tutorial on how to fix our system without the need of paying for a call out.
    We really appreciate your help and wish you all the best, thank you ❤

    Being one who records whilst they work and edits in the twilight hours. I know the difficulties and how much effort goes into making these videos. Material like this is undervalued. Education has changed so much with UA-cam. Society are gaining the equivalent of a UA-cam plumbing degree. It's good when it's used for something positive like making individuals better engineers. Onsite experience is vital as well as real qualifications. Yet this media stream and experience passed on is helping nations strive to better engineering standards. It would have been a game changer if I had some of these videos when initially qualified as a plumber 13 years ago. There was hardly anything like this to watch. It's great that the information is there for those that are thirsty to grow in their knowledge of the trade.

    This tutorial was more than useful; it was inspirational. From yesterday morning, I had no hot water or heating. I watched Allen's film and cleared the clutter from around my boiler. I found a little button and, well, I'm a sucker for a little button so I pressed it. Hey pressed-o! Hot water and heating returned as though by magic. Now I feel empowered to bleed. All I need is a bleed screw and I'm away. Thanks, Allen!

      @Allen Hart so I bled my radiators the other week, did the thing underneath the boiler to get pressure back up to one. Now my heating only comes on once per day for about an hour. Hot water will come on no bother. The little light that says the heating's on doesn't come on. The boiler sounds a bit 'chuggy' when first switched on.
      Any suggestions please?

      Thank you , young man. I know nothing about the pressure meter. But when i saw you remove the thermo'#valve i knew that i could do the job. Bleed the air. Being an old a***se motor mech (92+) always aware that i could mess up,saw your instruction & immediately understood THANKS
      Had a new boiler fitted 12 months back ,i thought over expensive (personal recommendation) cant complain £2656.0 for boiler ,fitting +small radiator (Ideal) Just a bill for the total ,no individual price --parts 1 man & his son 1.1/2 days.

  • @funkyfender1
    @funkyfender1 4 роки тому +44

    Thanks Allen, maybe mention that, when there is air in the radiator, water won’t be coming out immediately when the bleed screw is first opened. Instead, we’ll hear the air hiss out of the bleed screw until the air is expelled, then the water comes out. Also, sometimes the hissing sound might reduce and stop before the air is fully expelled from the radiator. This is a sign that there is an excessive amount of air build up in that radiator and the system pressure has been lost during the bleed process, so the system needs to be re-pressurised to continue with the bleed process. Another way of telling if there is air in a radiator is that you might hear water inside gurgling or trickling through the radiator galleries. A full radiator tends to be quiet in operation. Cheers mate... keep ‘em coming...

I'm only here because my Dad was a plumber for some years - qualified in the 1960's - and I like to see the kinds of things he was doing to put food on the table and clothes on our backs. He turned our central heating off some 10 years ago for some reason, sadly was diagnosed with dementia, bless him, and completely forgot how to put it back on!

    I worked as a plumber in a general hospital full time, started in the early 70's, there was an older part, the original hospital, with had cast iron radiators, they had " automatic air vents " which had a small wooden tapered dowel in them, when there was any air in the rad' it let it seep out, the the wooden tapered dowel expanded when they got wet, and stop the water coming out, they never need replacing, and were over a hundred years old, and no water on the floor, wish I had taken a photo.

  • @TheNailEngineer
    @TheNailEngineer Рік тому +1

    Mate, I used your tips to cure not one but two tepid radiators in my system, without even touching the bleed key. I switched the boiler off, then all the other radiators. One at a time, I first shut off the lock shield side (making a note of how much of a turn it took), then removed the thermostat and gave a couple of taps on the pin, replaced the thermostat, reopened the lock shield, kept all the other rads off (except the one in the hall, that has no thermostat on it) then checked the boiler pressure, before firing up the heating. When I was satisfied the faulty rad was working, I turned the rest of the rads on to make sure I'd not shifted the problem elsewhere. Then I did the second faulty one the same way. All rads are now working properly again, without any bleeding 🎉

    I learned how to do this from an emercency plumber three weeks before XMas. Bleed radiators, go down to basement, build up pressure by turning the tap on and stop just beyond one bar. Rinse and repeat with all radiators in the house. That was a lot of fun. The hard part was locating the pressure gauge under the tank and locating the silver braided pie with a tap that supplies it.
    Make sure you know where everything is and have the right tools before you start...goes without saying.

    I just moved into a home with this type of heating system. The house has been unused/underused for quite sometime. Also, the water is very hard in this region of Spain. As such, when we moved in, we had so much trouble with the heating. As I was not familiar with this form of heating, we had to call a plumber. I wish I had seen this video before calling as much of the work I could have done myself. That said, there were things where the plumbers skill and advice was invaluable. Thanks for this video. It has been huge help.

    Thank you SO much for this! I decided to replace a manual bleed valve with an automatic one yesterday. (What can I say... I'm lazy!) So much air came out, which was replaced with water when I turned the valves back on. Then the boiler was showing F1 which means low pressure fault. The pressure meter was showing 1.8 Bar which should have been OK (though a little on the high side). I found the manual and found out how to add water to the system, so I added a little. The meter didn't move, so I wondered if the needle was stuck. I tapped the meter a few times; nothing happened. The boiler was still showing the fault indication so I added a bit more water and then the pressure gauge sprung into life and started reading 0.4 Bar! It was then functioning, and rising. I added water to take it up to 1.0 Bar as specified in the instructions (should be in range 1.0-1.5 Bar ideally) and the fault indication went away. The radiator that I had worked on started working so much better than I think it ever has! I'm glad I watched this video first!

    I could never dare to remove the trv on one of my rads for about 3 years because i thought i would cause a leak and be left with water marks on the adjacent walls and the ceiling below.
    Even though the trv is on zero, the rad is still piping hot and my son does not like any heat in his bedroom and has to keep the window open due to this issue.
    Anyway, i took off the trv and unstuck the pin as you demonstrated in your video and now the rad turns off as it should when zero is selected.
    So thank you very much for sharing this and you saved me a bunch of money.

    My boiler was broken down, low pressure and not working on 4th Oct 2020.
    Call the professional he raised the pressure and did a service. He reset it. It worked for a bit and
    broken down again. All together they came 5 times replaced 2 parts but never did what you showed us here. He said it is very frustrating not knowing what's wrong. It is now 4 months and checking everyday if it works.
    I was told to reset every time if it breaks down. Still fingers crossed. Not cheap!

      Black water may suggest the system inhibitor fluid is non existent or past its best. Could use a magnaflow system to assist with cleaning your water but nothing will keep it perfect

      Sounds as though the system pressure dropped too low while you were letting the air out. Re-pressurise your system to 1 bar & try bleeding again.
