A radiator that is hot at the bottom and cold at the top needs bleeding. Here is the Galveston guide.
The air
Air trapped in the radiator stops the hot water from reaching the top.
The bleed
Open the bleed valve with a key until water, not air, comes out, then close it.
The pressure
After bleeding, check and top up the boiler pressure if needed.
The call
Warm radiators, done right. Call 888-217-3585 and Galveston Plumbing Pros will match you with a Galveston pro.
