Balancing

[nigelb]

Balancing seems to be one of the favourite topics in this forum so sorr

to be boring but...

I posted before about balancing. Many helpful replies. I pretty muc get it but one quick clarification if possible. I have only 6 rads wit combi boiler.

TRVs are on all rads except bathroom.

When balancing system should both valves in bathroom be fully open fo by-pass purposes or should bathroom rad be included in balancing? Wil this still be all right when other TRVs are shut down?

Sorry to be thick.

Thanks

Nige

It would be easier to help you if you gave the subject of the previous discussions - at the moment I can't find anything else from you.

It needs to be balanced, same as all the others. It is the whole system that has to be balanced, not just some radiators.

Some combis have an internal automatic bypass valve and so do not require a radiator to be used as a by-pass, and can fit TRVs on all radiators. It's worth checking if yours is like that.

Yes.

Have you seen the balancing faq?
