Certainly sounds like; or similar too STEAM Heat. Not at all similar to electrically heated/ forced air heating/cooling. The condition isn't unique; and to bleed the lines might aleviate the situation.

You need to purge the air out of the system common problem. above the circulator pump you should see a shut off valve and a drain valve close the shut off connect hose to drain valve open it till you get steady stream of water with no sputtering.

Reduce the speed of the pump, it normally has 3 speeds.
