Hi there, i have a problem with my upstairs radiators, my downstairs one,s are fine and get up to temperature nice but the upstairs remain luke warm, i have tried to bleed them but when i open the bleed screw no air seems to escape and there is no water comeing out either, any help would be appreciated, thankyou.
If it's a pressurised system, check system pressure and top-up if necessary.
If not or if system pressure is fine, then the bleed points could be blocked. Turn off both radiator valves, remove bleed nipple and insert a pin into the radiator to clear blockage - replace nipple open valves and bleed as normal.
