Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Check if the central heating system is on. Ensure valves are open. If installed in a single-pipe system, verify that diversion tees are correctly installed and functioning. Bleed the radiator using the air vent to release any trapped air.

Leaking connections

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check the integrity of the seals on the plug and vent. If leaking persists, you may need to re-apply PTFE tape or sealant to the threads before re-tightening.

Radiator makes noise during heating/cooling

Plastic inserts within the brackets help minimize expansion and contraction noise. Ensure the radiator is seated precisely on the brackets. Minor noises can be normal as the system operates.

Uneven heating across the radiator

This can occur in single-pipe systems if diversion tees are not used or are installed incorrectly. Ensure the system is balanced and, if necessary, consider professional consultation for single-pipe system optimization.
