Now more and more families will choose to install radiators to make the home warmer in winter. But in the dead of night, there will always be a radiator making a "whooshing" sound, which is noisy and affects the rest at night. Many fans have asked, what is the reason for this? What is a good solution? Today Xiaobian will support everyone.
In general, radiators are silent when heating. If there is a noise, you can follow these 2 steps to prevent problems that affect the heating.
The first step is to listen to the sound:
(1) If you hear the sound of water in the radiator, you may have to consider whether there is air in the heating duct that has not been drained. You need to use a wrench to open the exhaust valve, hear the exhaust sound of "poof", and observe whether there is water flowing out. When the water flow stops, it means that the air in the radiator has been exhausted and can continue to be used. It should be noted that the radiator should not be too high when installed in the home, otherwise it will cause bad air emissions.
(2) If you hear the knocking sound of "bang bang bang", you may have to consider whether there are impurities in the radiator. When filling the heating with water, it is mixed with sediment, and under the erosion of the water, noise is generated. Over time, it will cause problems with heating. How to solve this problem is also relatively simple, remove the radiator to clean, clean and then reinstall it. If you feel that it is troublesome to disassemble frequently, you can add a filter in front of the pipe to reduce the impurities entering the radiator.
(3) Excluding the first two cases, if there is still a sound, it is necessary to consider whether the water in the radiator hits the radiator. After heating, the water flow in the radiator is relatively stable, but because the heating valve is not fully opened or the opening is too small, it will cause uneven water flow in the radiator and produce noise. It is necessary to adjust the radiator's water supply valve appropriately to balance the water flow.
The second step, look at the bracket:
Check that the relevant parts for installing the radiator are not secure. In winter, thermal expansion and contraction may cause the parts to loosen, and a sponge or shock absorbing pad can be placed on the middle pad. If it is not installed firmly in the first place, it is necessary to remove the radiator and reinstall the fixing. It should be noted that radiator installation cannot be uneven.
Finally, if you still can't solve it well through the above methods, it is recommended to seek professional staff help
Your newly installed heating also has a loud sound, you need to pay attention to whether it is not firm in the welding, which will also cause water leakage. Therefore, when choosing a radiator, it is necessary to consider issues such as quality and welding process.
