how do I bleed a radiant heating system?

Question

I have a radiant oil heating system that I beleive has air pockets. Some of the rooms are cold. I have been trying to bleed using past experience but this has always been a hit or miss. I am trying not have to call an expensive oil person.

Answer 1

There is a flush valve on the unit that you open to drain standing water. Check with the manufacture if your is not readily visible. There is a pretty good trouble shooting site: http://www.radiantheat.net/eichler_operational_guide/
