I know water comes out but thats about it, never tried it. Its obviously to make sure they are working efficiently or something though.

It releases pressure which may cause the radiators to not evenly distribute heat. Basically, you unscrew the side a bit, water spurts out at you, and you close it up again.

It's to get rid of air, not water. You should stop when the water spits out. I can do it, it's easy...the hardest thing is finding where I put the key after the last time!

It's funny, I was thinking about it few days ago.

Yes, I can and I must do all radiators before weather is getting cold.

No, I can't do it. I bat my eyelashes at an unsuspecting male and get them to do it

Radiators get air locks and you need a little rad key , you have to go in order of the radiators around the house and bleed them , or sometimes the airlock will move on to next one (rad stays cold) then you get a lovely warm house.

Nathan has lost all his man points, shakes head.
the correct answer is to release air from the system.
