Help in San Diego?

Hi all - I have a two-pipe steam radiator system in my 1926 house in San Diego, some radiators work, some don't, boiler is good, pressuretrol set correctly, etc. I suspect steam traps may be an issue, or gunk in the return somewhere.
I'd like recommendations for qualified repair people in the San Diego area - I haven't been able to find any.
Thank you!

Visit the wholesale plumbing/heating supply houses and ask for recommendations.
Even someone who is retired could be a start.
The traps would be a good place to start-search here for testing traps for the procedure.
Even one open trap can shut down the others on the same main.—NBC0 -

Yeah it gets cold there, especially when the wind is whipping in. Not like winter back east, but you need heat.
I’d be curious to see pics of a house in San Diego that has steam.There was an error rendering this rich post.
