    Thanks everyone. I've not bled the radiators yet -I thought the heating needed to be on in order to push the water round so will it work with the heat off?
    .

    Actually, you shouldn't bleed radiators when the heating is on, you should do it when then heating is off.
  • The system doesn't need to "push water around" when bleeding the system, but it does need to be pressurised. If the pressure drops drops when bleeding a radiator, it needs to be re-pressurised before bleeding the next one (just trying to keep things simple)
