Sounds like a banging noise coming from the radiator when the system is running i recorded the sound but cannot attach it here. If someone could email at kennethbatiukjr@gmail.com I can send the video i recorded and see what you think. Thanks a lot need to quiet this thing down. Thanks

    So I adjuated the pitch of the radiator and the riser that was making noise as well. I also changed the dole 1a adjustable vents with non adjustable ones and the problem went away. The rads got hot at the same time and stopped making any noise at all. Crossing my fingers this works but I'm still having a guy come out and check the system.

    Could it have been I was seriously over venting the radiators. They seems to also stay warm a lot longer now that I changed the vents then when I had the other vents on.

    Combination of both....water and fast moving steam.
