Have you watched any YouTube videos about bleeding radiators? If there's air in them they won't work.
Sure, that would've been the easiest solution, but yesterday we tried bleeding them after our pipe cleaning attempts: there was never air coming out, only warm water. The erratic behaviour of the heating system is that it sometimes works (albeit with reduced output) and sometimes fails completely - and most unfortunate, the "failing" periods are during nights with -3ยฐC ๐ฅถ We now suspect that it is a problem directly in my apartment: either rust or some other blockage directly in my pipes or something inside the radiators. The bedroom one works however, which is baffling to me.
Is it one zone, or does the bedroom have it's own zone (thermostat)?
I'm not really sure I can explain that very well in english. Our apartment complex works like many others from old times here in Germany: there's a big thermostat on the main heating unit in the cellar, then every apartment has a radiator in each room except the corridor with a valve. According to my landlords, the bedroom and living room should be connected and the bathroom and kitchen are a separate circuit (anterior and posterior circulation). The pipes for the bedroom should go through the 3-room apartment of my neighbour however, which is the only idea we have why it's still working ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
That makes enough sense to debunk my theory, which was a bad zone valve!
