    The Heat is On

    I'm trying to get the radiators going today. It wouldn't be so bad, except that I made a rookie mistake.

    After turning on the pump, I immediately went around to bleed the radiators. The result, is that I actually ended up draining many of the the upstairs radiators. I've got to get some pressure back into the system, now. I think this is going to be a long chore. The pressure can onlt build so much, then I need to bleed off the air to let the water rise just a little more.

    Well, at least the bedroom nozzle was clogged. This gave me time to figure this all out before I went and messed up the heat in there!

    Update: the frigging pump is jammed. Gotta call the pros!
