I am ready to start adding a separate zone into my existing one zone system now. I have bought some old (more than 20 yrs old) and new (not used) Weil-McLain CI Snug Baseboards.
I found there are some rust dust inside the baseboard. How can I clean them out before connect them? Use Shop-Vac? how about air-compressor? and how to do it effectively?
I have no problem on solder in the past. But this time I plan to test all joints before I shutdown the system and connect the new addition in. how can I test the new addition without interrupt the existing heating? Use my nailer air-compressor? how?
The Air Vent location is on the top close to the end by design. I don't think that is a good place to release air because some water will come out with air and it is hard to catch water there. I am thinking put the Air Vent on the upper side outlet. Is this a valid change?
thanks,
