    Thank you for showing us how the whole thing actually works. In my case, the pin/plunger was stuck so I was not getting any hot water flowing inside the radiator. Fixed it by gently tapping it with the hammer and a bit of WD-40 afterwards to make sure it doesn't get stuck again anytime soon.

      The PRV controls pressure and regulates pressure/flow through it therefore passing water through/downstream of the valve to outlets.

    • @Tb0n3
      @Tb0n3 4 месяца назад

      If it's anything like a vehicle thermostat it could be a wax which expands under heat. Wax motors are quite typical in these kinds of valves. An adjustment could just be a screw which adjusts where the body of that wax motor sits.

    This valve is made of brass, so it is a very good conductor of heat, which means that not insulating this valve will compromise the heat retention. Effectively this valve seriously reduces the efficiency of the ASHP system.

    What are the consequences of this valve functioning? When reaching temperatures of 3 degrees and below, I understand that the water is released out. But... can it be released only from the heatpump and leave rest of the water - from the inhouse heating system - intact? Or there is a risk of depressurising and emptying the entire heating circuit, also from inside the house?

    • @altecniclimited947
      @altecniclimited947 Год назад

      Thanks for your question! The operational function of the valve is to draw warmer water from the system to the cooler parts to prevent freezing, this would no doubt over a period of time draw water from within the property. The discharge rate is approx 0.5ltrs per hour at -5deg, however for the system to drop to 3deg at -1deg ambient temperature could take up to 36hrs so the chance of activation is minimal. Also if the valve were to activate, I would assume only an amount of the head of pressure will be released and not full system drainage. For any more information, please follow the link: www.altecnic.co.uk/contact-us/

  • @jlongrigg
    @jlongrigg Год назад

    Thanks for sharing this. I recently replaced Myson TRV with one from Toolstation - the head only, which fitted on okay. I also did the same with one from ebay. When I switched the heating on, the room temperature was already 18 degrees in the two rooms and the trv was set on number 1, but the radiators still warmed up - eventually reaching 20 degrees, yet the TRV shouldn't have activated because number 1's temperature activation was no more than 14 degrees. I expected to turn the knob to number 3 if I wanted 20 degrees. Do some of these TRVs not work as expected for some reason? I could go out and purchase your brand but I am unsure if I might experience the same problem.

    Good evening. I’m midway through your presentation and I’m finding it really informative. I’ve just started working on a university campus and one of the main buildings is comprised of student accommodation and a hotel. The original installation is a district system supplying multiple hiu,s . The main problem in my opinion is the hot water primary pipe work supplying the required heat to the plate exchanger . Although the pipe work is insulated the heat generated by the primary circuit throughout the building and in the risers creates a level of radiant heat leading to constant complaints. I would like to hear what you think mate. 👍 Many thanks, and kind regards, Les.

      Thanks for your question Mark, we absolutely agree that choosing the right filter for the right system is key to ensuring an efficient working system for installers and homeowners. In the case of a heavily clogged system, a magnetic filter alone would not solve the problem and a full system flush would be required prior to installation of a filter like the XS. We also have a range of other magnetic filters with larger collection chambers that may be more suitable to larger systems. The benefit of installing the XS would be that the glass visual indicator allows installers and homeowners alike to visually inspect the cleanliness of a system without having to isolate and drain, meaning you only take action when it's required.
