radiator half heating in two pipe vapor system

Dave Meers

Hi BigS,

1) What steam pressure are you operating at?
High steam pressure can have this effect on vapor.

2) How is the air being vented from the system?
Slow or inadequate venting can cause this.

3) The air holes on the vapor elbows can get clogged. Some models have a hex plug at the top of the elbow to gain access to clear the clog, others don't have the access and require you to break the unions to get to the air hole. You might want to check this out with one of the radiators that is not working.

These are the first three areas to check. Please let us know, a lot of us here on the wall love the Broomell system.

Best regards, Pat
