I have a question i m trying to get heat on the 3th floor and i cant now when i try to purge the water on the 3th floor barely no water comes out with the lower boiler vale close. when its open water comes out with ease. so i change the air vale on the line thinking maybe the line has air and it still the same. the psi is 8 to 10 pounds so could it be the pressure or do i need to change the circulator pump. the pump about 8 or more years old. the 1st and 2nd floor is older but still working and i am getting heat on the 1st and 2nd floor not the 3th.

The pressure is a bit low. 15-19 psi is what you’re looking for. Makes sure the fresh water supply is open and stays open for one. Check that and let me know.

thanks for your help you was right I learn how to bring up the psi in my boiler to 19 and I am getting heat now on all floors. I wasn’t sure if it was a psi issue and how to bring it up I did some research and figure it out. I also think the automatic fill valveĀ is bad so I will be changing that soon. thanks again.
