Hi Huggy,

I hope you have a few moments to help me out.
I was installing some wall cabinets and drilled into a pex pipe that was behind a hollowed out stud. After the repairs were done I noticed that my radiant floor heat was not working as well as it should, I think I may have air bubbles in the lines from turning off the water main to the house.

Are you familiar with this make and model?
Is it as simple as hooking up a hose to that male hose connector and letting it drain out for 30 mins or so?

i dont do any radiant heating....around here that work is typically done by a heating contractor... so ive never even touched a boiler

i think its very possible you have some air in the lines...depending on how much they had to drain it could be a lot....

sorry i couldnt help ya
