Discuss Vertical Radiator Makes A Bang When Heating Up & Cooling Down in the UK Plumbers Forums area at PlumbersForums.net

Hello, I have a customer with a modern anthracite vertical radiator and a modern TRV and lockshield.

The radiator makes a loud metallic bang from within the radiator, when it heats up and cools down. I have opened the lockshield fully, lowered the boiler pressure from 2.5 bar to just over 1 bar, turned the boiler temperature down and bleed the radiator. But it makes no difference.

I haven’t experienced a noise like this before and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on it, before we consider replacing the radiator. Many thanks

It’s expansion and contraction do you have the rubber feet on the clips ?
