I have a hot water baseboard system that is making a percolating / trickling noise in some of the baseboard units. This is the first hot water heating system I’ve had so I am new to this type of heat– although I like it much more than forced air. The rooms get warm enough but when i fired up the system for the first time of the season there was no noise and it seems to be getting a bit worse the more it runs. I’m just troubleshooting at this point so if anyone can help me out here I would really appreciate it. I can attach pictures of my system if anyone would find them helpful.
