One section of BaseRay not heating up

Verderzi

Hello I was wondering if anyone can help me I have one section of baseRay radiators that are not heating up but work fine elsewhere in the house (hot to the touch) meanwhile I have one section that is cold no heat whatsoever I’ve attached some pictures of said baseRay does anyone have any advice as to what I can do to start diagnosing and hopefully get it working again? Many thanks for any advice I haven’t tried anything so far

Sure..looks like a Hot water system, correct?  Most likely air-bound.  I see a small coin vent on upper fave of baseball.  Try cracking that and try to burp it.  Mad Dog

You'll need a coin vent 🔑 key.  You have one?  Look in that jar on your work bench....usually fine 1 or 5.  Mad Dog 🐕

Hey thanks for your reply are you talking about this thing in the picture? I used a flat head screwdriver on it and loosened it to bleed it but nothing came out air wise and no liquid either

if neither air nor water came out then,
you need to check your pressure down at the boiler,
and likely add water,
post pictures of the boiler, floor to ceiling,
and show any fittings , valves, ect on the pipes around it
and a close up so we can see the pressure gage,

actually, check closely around that air vent for a little hole or raised nipple that may be painted in or sealed shut,
poke it with a pin or nail or something,
or, carefully keep backing that screw out till it almost falls out, air or water should seep past its threads,
or, see the boiler,
