one radiator not getting water flow

Assuming you can access the <I>plain</I> return tee, I would replace with a monoflow tee--just remember that they're installed in the opposite direction those serving the supply. If you're lucky that added resistance will force sufficient flow through the rad--otherwise things can get messy, complicated and expensive...

one radiator not getting water flow
Got a mono flo system 2 zones and one upstairs room is not getting heat/flo. Its 1 1/4 main line with 3/4 monoflo feed just a reg 1 1/4 X 3/4 tee on return. This room upstairs has the feed and return seperated by about 7'. I have no idea how the pipes are run thru the walls and why the space between the pipes, which i think is part of the problem. I was thinking i might install a valve to shut off the flow to the rest of the system and force the air up and out and start the flow. Any other ideas or might this work. Thanks0
