Radiator NOT GETTING HOT Because of Blockage in the Pipework. Finding & Removing Blockage. FIXED
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 05. 2024
- This incredible blockage in the pipework was accidentally made by the bathroom fitter who installed the radiator some two years previously to my visit and the radiator had only got luck warm because of the blockage.
Once I found and removed the blockage the radiator worked fine and got nice and hot.

Thanks to your very informative videos we've fixed our blocked pipes and now have a boiling hot new radiator 😊👍 thank you very much, keep up the good work.
Perfect job for a thermal imaging camera, Black Friday is coming up 😊
Well done Sherlock! That can't have been cheap for the customer though.
Those towel rails don't give off much heat anyway, especially when covered in towels!
My money is on the raw plug being with the connector in tool box, either way they should not have left without radiator getting hot.
Most plumbers get twitched once it gets to 3pm.😊
Once had a bending spring in a 22 mm bend , worked fine for the first few years, once it had corroded up system was fubar
Brilliant
It’s lucky the plug was trapped in the plastic elbow joint.
I bet he had the plugs in his pockets, I've seen 10mm pipe sleeves trapped in a pump before 😂
You say that the system should be flushed before installing a new boiler. What if you have a single pipe system, so it's impossible to flush the rads?
They are a problem. You cant flush. Best to start again, new system
@@MarkBallardLTD - If stuck down floor coverings mean you can't take up floors and have to stick with a one pipe system, would it be best to use a low loss header or just rely on a mag filter to protect the new boiler?
so why wasn't the bathroom fitter called back to fix this / or why wasn't it checked properly once installed - poor form by the homeowner / bathroom fitter IMO.
good victim blaming.🙄
They did call him back. I should point out there was laminate floor laid down.
