Ok I remember @DanHolohan talked about never using a one pipe air vent on a two pipe radiator with a steam trap. I can't remember why and can't find the reason for it. Someone asked me why and I sounded like my father. "Because you don't" What happens when you install an air vent on a 2 pipe radiator? Thanks

The vent will hide a failed radiator trap and screw up the system balance while raising the fuel bill. All accompanied by a water hammer choir.

Yeah..Ray...see that often when guys are trying to get two-pipe-Steam Trap Radiators 🔥 and don't address the bad traps & poor main venting. It is also wasted $$  as good Vents are $$$ now....times that by a whole apartment building!   Mad Dog 🐕
