    Hi all,

    One of the downstairs rads in my house is heating a little slower than the others and I noticed that one of the pipes (the one that controls the temp in only lukewarm (even though it's open fully). The pipe on the other side for balancing the rad is open fully also. I have tried bleeding it but only water came out and I then shut of all the other rads in the house and the problem rad was absolutely roasting. I then reopened all the other rads and everything ok.Then this evening when the heat came back on the problem rad was still slow heating and the inlet pipe is still only luke warm.The system is balanced ok from what I can see so what should I try next?
    Anybody any ideas?
    Thanks

    at a guess that rad is an end of line rad so will be last to get hot water when other rads are on

    Flush out the whole systems. Is the water being restricted by oxidised water.?
