Why do the radiators in your house click when you start the heating system?
Does not sound like central heating. It sounds like a boiler system. When the hot water is routed through the cooler pipes and radiator, the air in those pipes are pushed through begins to expand and it causes the same effect as a tea pot boiling on a much larger scale.
What is the difference between an air bleed valve and a pressure relief valve on a boiler?
They serve two different purposes. An air bleed valve is used to remove air from the circulation system. A pressure relief valve is designed to automatically open when certain pressure levels are reached.
How it works forced water heating system?
A boiler heats water to a safe heating temperature, often 180 degrees or so, and when a thermostat calls for heat, circulating pumps move the water from the boiler to the radiators where it heats the air surrounding the radiant surface, causing localized convective heating as well as some amount of conductive and radiant heat transfer. others have said: Stratification HEAT goes to the cold.
How do you bleed air out of baseboards that have no bleed valve?
By using the bleeder valve by the boiler
Why is a 1992 Dodge caravan getting little heat after changing the thermostat?
Possible air lock in the heating pipes. Common after changing thermostat. look for a bleed screw on the heating pipes between the engine and interior, or loosen one of the heater pipes., after engine has warmed up. Run engine to dislodge trapped air.

its easy if you do this they wont you to make a line for the pipes so they go in a line to the boiler so you can get air into the boiler
How do you get air out of a heating pipe?

When you turn off any faucet in the house it sounds like the toilet is filling What is the problem?

Why does a house get cold in winter if the boiler goes off?
In the winter people used to heat their houses with fires. In modern houses the boiler is a fire that heats water (or air) that is then circulated round the house in pipes to warm the rooms - this is called central heating. If the boiler goes off this removes the source of heat and the central heating can no longer do its job. As a result the hose will lose its heat energy to the outside and gradually cool down.
Where is the air bleed valve for the heating system on a 99 Mercury Villager?
This vehicle does not have a bleed valve, it is not needed.
