    An excellent way of explaining how they work. The part about the balancing is what I think is wrong with mine. I’ve replaced the radiators one by one since moving in and some of the new ones no longer heat up. I’ve opened all the lock shield valves fully thinking it will increase the flow of water but that’s where I’ve gone wrong. Next thing is to balance them and increase the water flow to the ones furthest away from the boiler. Thank you for making this video 👍🏻👍🏻

    Very clear video, thank you. My new home has floor heating on ground floor (where the thermostat is also installed), keeping the temperature very steady. First and second floor however are radiators, 4 pieces in total, 2 of which remain more or less luke warm, never more. Also, the other 2 are cold at the bottom which tells me the temperature drop (delta T) is too great for the boiler to sit in its HR range. Where do I begin correcting this?

    One important tip I missed in this video is that if a radiator stays cold it could be due to the Thermostatic valve being stuck. This mostly happens on radiators that are not used very often or were not used for a long time. Just remove the thermostatic knob like shown on 1:26 and use some (penetrating) oil on the valve while pulling/pushing the valve in & out with a plier. After this, screw the thermostatic knob back on the valve like show on 1:34. Simple and only takes a few minutes.

    • @ericBcreator
      @ericBcreator 2 года назад

      Yes, great tip. It (also) happens when you keep the thermostatic valves at the same position for a long time.
      To prevent this, turn the valves knobs all the way from left to right regularly.

    I don't know if you are a skillful plumber/heating expert or not. But you are certainly a good educator. The problem with trying to learn something from the plumber is that they are not good at explaining things and tend to show off their knowledge rather than helping you to understand something, which is fine since it is not their job to educate anyone. Additionally, most plumbers would not know how to make that animation.

    Informative with the diagrams. God bless and thank you for this. I'd like you to elaborate more on the feeding loop under the boiler and what does it serve?
    From the diagram, it seems like the feed of cold water will go to the inlet of the boiler, then take a feeding loop of cold water. The boiler will have two outlets of hot water, one for a normal tap/sink, and the other outlet of hot water will distribute to the radiators.
