    Sure, that would’ve been the easiest solution, but yesterday we tried bleeding them after our pipe cleaning attempts: there was never air coming out, only warm water. The erratic behaviour of the heating system is that it sometimes works (albeit with reduced output) and sometimes fails completely - and most unfortunate, the “failing” periods are during nights with -3°C 🥶 We now suspect that it is a problem directly in my apartment: either rust or some other blockage directly in my pipes or something inside the radiators. The bedroom one works however, which is baffling to me.

        I’m not really sure I can explain that very well in english. Our apartment complex works like many others from old times here in Germany: there’s a big thermostat on the main heating unit in the cellar, then every apartment has a radiator in each room except the corridor with a valve. According to my landlords, the bedroom and living room should be connected and the bathroom and kitchen are a separate circuit (anterior and posterior circulation). The pipes for the bedroom should go through the 3-room apartment of my neighbour however, which is the only idea we have why it’s still working 🤷🏻‍♂️
