Hello all! The radiator in my sunroom has not worked since before I purchased my 1920 home 2 years ago. It seems it was abandoned, possibly because the water pipe servicing it froze up at one time?? I have yet to open the area where the pipe leads (up through the unheated garage). I do not understand why there are TWO pipes coming up through the left side. The one pipe that is lying behind the radiator seems very much connected on that side and dead-ends on the other. Wish I could send the pictures I took, but a URL is requested (??)
Firstly, how do I reconnect the pipes in order to test the radiator for leaks? Secondly, exactly how DO I test it? And thirdly, if all goes well, how do I PROPERLY insulate the pipes in the garage to withstand our horrible WI winters!
Thanks so much!
