Shut off water at home???

Dutch - my forced hot water system doesn't have any bleeders in the high spots. The older systems do. Filling this system just requires that you supply water and attach a drain hose to the spigot between the circ pump and the rest of the piping. Water is forced up through the piping and when it stops gurgling at the drain, you're done.

I've had to burp the system regularly since I had the circ pumps replaced. It's not that big a deal.

I had considered shutting off the furnace and draining the heating system, but I don't think I'd be able to get 100% of the water out.
