Bleeding your radiators regularly will save you money.

Radiator bleeding is a term given to the ‘act’ of removing air that has accidentally gotten into the radiator’s coils. When air gets in the radiator, it rises to the top and displaces some of the water. Air doesn’t conduct heat as efficiently as water; therefore it is both costly and wasteful to run your radiator with air trapped inside. All radiators must be bled on a regular basis, as the heating and cooling of water naturally releases air bubbles.

You will need a radiator bleed key that can be purchased at your l;ocal hardeare store and a cloth or paper towel.
