Likely causes

  1. Radiators not heating sufficiently at factory setting
  2. Noises produced in radiators or radiator valves

Where to start

  1. Flush the heating installation through
  2. Check the silicone hose connection (1) between the pump's automatic air vent and the hydraulic console
  3. Fill with water until the required filling pressure is reached
