top floors not getting that much heat

Hi,

we currently have a gas steam boiler by Dunkirk. The top floors don't get that much heat and if it does go up one room gets the most heat. Also there is a ton of banging when we put the heat up.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks!

    Your vents on each radiator may need attention, you may also have the pressure set too high

    There are other causes. Can you post photos of your boiler in the basement so we can see the connecting pipes from the floor to the ceiling?

    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?
