Any suggestions on how to clear the airblock?
On my hydronic heat system I have a drain valve which is at the lowest point
in the system. It has a garden hose thread on it. I use a double female,
garden hose to garden hose fitting onto a hose with a shut off to connect into
the system with water pressure. I barely crack the water hose to put a small
amount of pressure into the system, if you had a water pressure gauge in the
line it would be under 5psi. Then bleed, bleed, bleed each heater.
The water pressure will pressurize the system and water/air will flow from
any leak. The bleed screw of course is a leak and being located on top will
allow the air to escape.
The pump used to circulate water is a centrifugal type pump which puts out
very little pressure so it is very hard to bleed with it.
