one lone radiator

you might have to feed more water to the boiler and keep bleeding until you get all the air out, easier with two people one feeding and one bleeding just keep it under 25 PSI and drop pressure back to 12 when your done.

i've got a boiler that supplies four radiators but only one gets warm. i tried bleeding them but i opened the valves & air came hissing out & then stopped. i thought after the air was done coming out i would get a stream of water? can anyone help please??!!

Daniel have you made sure the boiler pressure is still up while you are purging the air from the system? if you started with lets say 12 lbs of air/water and purged 6lbs of air from the system then your left with not much pressure at all coming out. The solution? Manually fill the boiler by probably lifting the lever on the fast fill boiler fill device. Of course, you should make sure the device is operation before manually filling it.

Sounds like...........

your boiler fill valve is off. Check to see that it's on and verify minimum system pressure of 12# for 2 stories above boiler, 19# for 3 stories. Give us a little history and some pics and maybe we can figure out why there's air in the system to begin with.
