So I've been troubleshooting for 3 days now. Over the last couple of years I've gotten a decent understanding of the boiler, but I'm stumped. Here's what's going on.
Pipes were knocking hard so I bleed the lines. I've done this before no problem. Now no heat upstairs.
Tried the thermostat, didn't seem to call for heat. Tried just tying the wires together, nothing.
Next was the zone valve which is newish. It wasn't opening, so I opened it manually to let water through, still no heat upstairs even with confirmed hot water on both sides of the pipes.
Next was looking for a way to bleed the air out of the baseboards, but my home has 0 of the small spouts you need on the baseboard themselves.
From another post, I raised the pressure up to 28 and bleed the lines again, with water rushing out the slowing way down and sputtering. Did this about 5x.
Seeing as I have no way of getting the air iuruos3, should I just continue what I'm doing?
