Cold Radiators and Falling Pressure in Fareham
Oli Jones Engineering, a Gas Safe registered gas engineer based in Southampton, covers central heating repair in Fareham and other homes within about 20 miles of Southampton. A radiator cold at the top usually has air in it, one cold at the bottom usually has sludge, and weekly pressure loss points to a leak or the expansion vessel.
Why would system pressure fall every week?
A radiator warm below and cold above usually has air trapped, cleared by bleeding and topping up pressure. The reverse, cold along the bottom, usually means sludge needing a flush and filter.
A gauge that drops week after week means a leak or an expansion vessel fault. Banging and kettling point to scale or sludge, and Oli Jones Engineering tests the easy hydraulic causes before taking readings at the boiler.

How to get a CP12 Gas Safety Certificate?
