Radiators: even if they are not used, it is advisable to take all the necessary precautions to avoid waste and to avoid very high bills.
Electricity bills continue to rise, which is why it is important to pay attention to waste and do all the tricks necessary to save.
The protagonists of the winter season, the radiators must absolutely not fall into oblivion, so it is important to take all the necessary precautions to avoid unpleasant surprises in the bill and not to run into unpleasant consequences as soon as you try to turn them back on with the start of the winter season.
There is an oversight in the summer that is deleterious: we all forget about it and take risks very high bills. Let’s not forget to perform a certain gesture that allows you to keep the radiators in excellent condition until they are switched on at the beginning of the winter season.
Radiators: watch out for thermostatic valves
Le thermostatic valves they have the function of controlling the water flow of a radiator. By adjusting the valves, the heat is divided into the various rooms of the building.
Once the desired temperature is reached, the valve closes and, if the temperature drops, the valve reopens.
If we are absent it is possible to set the radiators to a minimum and then increase the temperature, reducing waste. By adjusting the thermostatic valves it is possible to reduce gas consumption and save on the electricity bill.
To ensure good maintenance of the radiators, the thermostatic valves must be left open.
It is absolutely not recommended to set the thermostatic valves to zero: stagnant water inside the radiator could cause the formation of limestone deposits and damage the radiator.
The limescale deposits inside the radiator will make the heating system strain more, increasing energy consumption and costs in the bill.
Radiators are turned off after turning them off
If you cover the radiators with cloths, the thermostatic valve is not working properly. After the radiators have been switched on, they may be turned off.
It is possible to intervene by installing the radiator valves of the heads with a remote probe. To request the installation of the thermostatic valves, it is possible to contact a specialized technician, who will plan the intervention.
It is possible that the technician will ask us for the floor plan of the building, the measurements of the points of heat dispersion and the structural data of the apartment or house.
The intervention of the specialized heating engineer does not require the execution of masonry work: the valves are installed within a few hours. This intervention includes the recovery in ten years of 50% the amount of expenditure incurred.
