Colin from British Gas presents some great tips on getting the most out of your central heating system in winter. With just a few simple checks and adjustments you can keep your home warm more efficiently and save money too. And, don't forget to have your gas appliances regularly inspected by a qualified engineer at regular intervals. You can always check that the thermostat setting is high enough and that the other valve on the radiator is open.
If it used to work and now doesn't, it may need what we term as bleeding. The radiator may be full of air rather than water, in which case the air needs letting out or exhausting. If the top section of a radiator is cold when the heating is on, it is usually an indication that air has got into the system somewhere and has become trapped. Air in a radiator will rise to the top forming a pocket stopping the hot water from getting to that part.
This can be released by bleeding the radiator, remember to turn the heating off first and be careful of any hot water that may come out.

A tap which fails to supply water when opened may well be airlocked.
Removing the air lock To overcome this, attach a length of hosepipe to the affected tap and connect the other end to a working direct feed tap.
In most cases this will be the cold tap on the kitchen sink.
To ensure an even distribution of the hot water to the radiators in a system you'll need to do what's known as balancing the system.
Because the water is pumped via a pipe, and branches to feed each radiator, the ones at the beginning of the 'run' tend to get more than their fair share.
