Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating evenly

Bleed the radiator using the air vent to release trapped air. Ensure the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is set correctly and not obstructed.

Radiator making noise

Gurgling or banging noises may indicate trapped air. Bleed the radiator. Hissing sounds might be normal as water expands or contracts.

Radiator is cold at the top, warm at the bottom

This usually indicates trapped air. Bleed the radiator until water starts to come out.

Low overall heat output

Check that the boiler is functioning correctly and that other radiators are also experiencing low output. Ensure the system is properly pressurized. The radiator itself might be too small for the room if consistently underperforming.
