Some consumers complain that the last heating battery is not heating in their house. This factor causes a large number of inconveniences, because one of the rooms does not warm up and the owner of the apartment is forced to use additional heating equipment.
Most often, the reasons why the heating radiator does not fulfill the functions assigned to it are global and are as follows:
- Incorrect installation or connection;
- Insufficient pressure under which coolant is supplied to the system;
- Lack of balancing.
To find out the reason, it is recommended to contact professionals, but if it is impossible, you can try to solve the problem yourself.
Causes of breakdown and remedies
At the initial stage, check that the bypass is installed correctly. This element has the form of a tube installed in front of the heating battery. Bypass connects two pipes connected to the battery. One pipe is responsible for the flow of coolant, and the other for its reverse movement. Very often, the reason that the last radiator does not heat is the installation of a bypass in a distance from its design.
Often the last heating battery, which is the last in the overall design, stops heating due to its large size. If the radiator has more than 12 sections, the pressure may not be enough to evenly distribute the coolant. In this case, it is recommended to change the battery or cut some sections.
Such work is best entrusted to a specialist. Also, before performing trimming, you need to make sure that the coolant supply is turned off. Therefore, repair work is preferably performed in the warm season.
The third reason is incorrect balancing. Due to this, the coolant is distributed unevenly in sections. To ensure the operation of the equipment, it is necessary to install it in the correct position. It is also important to make sure that the wall on which the radiator is mounted has a flat surface.
Local causes
In some cases, the battery may stop warming due to local breakdowns.
It could be:
- Airing the general heating system in the house;
- Poor quality of the fluid playing the role of a coolant;
- Poor or old radiator.
To make the use of heating batteries as efficient as possible, you must regularly monitor their technical condition, clean, check the position in which they are installed and remove stagnant air masses.
