Guys, I'm not a plumber, but I got a new systems boiler fitted recently (gas), and 3 new vertical rads. One of the vertical rads sounds like it has water dripping inside it. I know there's trapped air. When I try and bleed the rad, only water comes out. I've tried to drain a few cups of water to see if there's air trapped inside the water, but only water comes out. How can I solve the problem? Please help me, the sound is driving me mad! If you need more information, please ask. Many thanks, G.
