Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up at all

Check if the central heating system is turned on and functioning. Ensure the radiator valves are fully open. If it's only cold at the top, it may need bleeding to release trapped air. Check the system pressure.

Radiator is only partially heating

This often indicates trapped air. Bleed the radiator using the bleed plug at the top until water starts to come out. Ensure the system pressure is adequate after bleeding.

Leaking from valve or connection point

Ensure the radiator valves are properly tightened. If leaking persists, the valve connection may need re-sealing or the valve itself may need replacement. Professional assistance may be required.

Noise from the radiator

Gurgling or banging noises can indicate trapped air, which needs to be bled from the system. If the noise persists after bleeding, check for water hammer in the pipework or ensure the radiator is securely mounted to prevent vibration.
