My house has an unusual (to me) Peerless Gas H/W boiler to FWA system similar to an automobile's heating system. The boiler and A/C system were new in 2000. In 2020 the circulator get stuck; wacked it, and it started up, following summer, installed new Taco 007e.
Currently: No heat. Boiler fires up, circulator shows amber LED indicating it's running normally, but there's no hot water getting to the "radiator" in the air handler. I opened the air-release valve at top of radiator, and got 1/2 second of air, then just water.
So... I think the possibilities are (A) the circulator is lying to me, or (B) there's something clogging the 3/4" copper leading to (or away) from the radiator, or, (C) the radiator itself is clogged up, or (D) the system is somehow air-bound {but I can't figure how that could be happening}
Any help in diagnosing what's going on, and, if it's a clog, how to get rid of it, most appreciated! Thanks in Advance.
