Problem on a radiator connected a wood boiler
Problem on a radiator connected a wood boiler
I carried out the installation of my wood boiler, I carried out the starting, alas I have a high extruded radiator on the first floor which does not work, its connection: the arrival of the radiator is at the bottom at left and its return to the bottom right. I dismantled everything but without result. If you have some experience or have experienced the same problem, thank you.

the arrival of the radiator is at the bottom left and its return at the bottom right
It would be better to arrive at the top and not at the bottom.
With purge valve at the top to remove air and gases which are happy to collect at the top of the installation in this radiator which then full of air never expelled, becomes an expansion tank and more at all a radiator because without circulating water !!!
An expansion tank and a safety valve are also required.

water must flow through the radiator from top to bottom.
Our acova (steel) has its I / O at the bottom ... with 1 top and bottom "collector" tube.
I do not know how it is done inside but it seems to me that there are zones (at least 2 in zig zag).
For mage.11's question, did he work "before"? Is it new? Thermostatic valve stuck? Are you sure the water is coming upstairs? Are other radiators upstairs working? Have you purged the air?
