[QUOTE="WillthePlumber, post: 2620803, member: 889153"] It's most likely caused by expansion of the coils in the radiator. I doubt the level of the radiator has anything to do with it. This can most likely be fixed by having a new radiator installed as the new one would tend to expand less. I've also used fin tube in place of radiators because they're much easier to maintain and are more reliable. I admit that I live in an area where radiators are not that common so my experience is limited with them. But expansion is usually the cause of most banging noises associated with hot water. [/QUOTE]
