in THE MAIN WALL
I have forced hot water with an oil burner. One room in our house is cold. Are there any adjustments I can make in that room or anywhere in the heating system ? The cold room does not have a thermostat in it.

    baseboard ?

    or other type emitters ?
    Sounds like a monoflo setup. Did you try to bleed air from that room ?

    Are The

    dampers on the B.B. enclosure open? Is there furniture in the way? Is the carpet blocking the opening near the bottom of the enclosure? Are your storm windows closed? Is the element covered with dust/lint? Is it installed correctly [fin orientation] ?

    Just a couple of the things you could look for. What is the water temp leaving the boiler?

    What kind of piping?

    One pipe with monoflo/diverter tees? Series loop? Parallel direct or reverse return?

    If it is a series loop, is the problem room at then end of the loop?
