Here is the simplest test in heating, and almost nobody does it.
Pick a mild day, turn the thermostat up, and let the system run for 20 minutes. Then walk round and put your hand on the top and bottom of every radiator. You are looking for cold patches, gurgling or banging, and any burning smell that lasts longer than the first few minutes.
Do it in August and you have eight weeks to sort a problem. Do it on the first frost and you have a cold house and a wait.
