Subject:      Re: Thermostat/Too cool

A couple of additional items from the previous post: those temps are celsius; and if air does get in stuck in the heater matrix it is very difficult to get out; so it makes sense to purge the system of air with the heater system fully on; pressure testing the rad cap and system (or equivalent) will verify if you have leaks that are sufficient to allow air into the system. DC

PS if you find that you are periodically having to top up the system then this points to air.
