Preparation:
Diagnosis of the problem: The first step is to understand why the boiler is full and the radiators are barely hot. This may be due to a variety of reasons:
Clogged pipes: If the pipes in your heating system are contaminated or blocked, the water does not flow efficiently, making it difficult to distribute heat properly.
Valve misalignment: If the valves of the radiators are misaligned, this can lead to uneven heating.
Installation error: Sometimes heating systems are poorly designed, for example, the pipes are too small or the system does not have adequate circulation.
Repair and improvement of the installation:
System breakdown: If air or dirt is available in the heating system, ventilation shall be made. Use the vents on the radiators to evacuate the air that could block the flow of water.
Non-return valves and thermostats: Make sure the valves are correctly positioned and do not block the flow of water. You can adjust them to get uniform heat.
Component replacement: If your installation is obsolete, you may want to consider replacing pipes, valves or radiators with newer and more efficient models.
Consult a professional: If you are not sure about the cause of the problem, it is worth consulting a plumber who will carefully analyse the situation and propose the best solution for you.
Service and storage advice:
Maintenance: Regular inspections of your heating system are crucial to avoid problems in the future. It is worth checking the installation every few years and carrying out the necessary repairs.
Storage: If you replace parts, make sure that the new components are stored in a dry and cool place so that they are not damaged before assembly.
Variants:
Underfloor heating systems: If you have underfloor heating, make sure that the installation is properly designed and that there are no problems with water flowing into the pipes.
Heating by heat pump: Heat pumps are becoming increasingly popular and can be an alternative to traditional heating systems. In this case, it should be ensured that the system is correctly designed and installed.
Energy savings: It is worth investing in modern, energy-efficient solutions that improve the efficiency of the heating system, thereby reducing energy consumption.
