Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Ensure the central heating system is on and functioning. Check that the radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air.

Leaking from connections

Turn off the heating system and isolate the radiator. Gently tighten the leaking connection. If the leak persists, you may need to re-apply PTFE tape or sealant.

Uneven heating

Bleed the radiator, starting from the top, to remove air pockets. Ensure there are no obstructions to the radiator's surface.

Radiator makes noise

Gurgling or knocking sounds often indicate trapped air; bleed the radiator. Hissing might indicate a faulty valve.
