Glucking radiators and cold rooms? Then it is time to vent the heating! With this guide it works quickly and easily.
When the days are getting shorter and the nights longer, autumn announces itself - and with it cooler temperatures. Even if it tends to be too warm due to global warming, the days and nights in autumn are cooler. In many households, the heating is therefore gradually switched on.
Incidentally, the official heating season in Germany usually begins in early October and lasts until the end of April. Depending on the weather, some households only switch on the heating in November. At the latest in winter, when the temperatures fall significantly, the heating becomes inevitable in order not to freeze and prevent mold formation.
But if you put the heating back into operation for the first time after the summer, you will probably hear a striking ghucker in the heating. It also happens that the heating does not get really warm, even though it has been completely turned on. All of this can be signs that the heating must be vented. This is important so that it gets really warm at home. But not only that, you also save heating costs. If you don't venture it, the heating must be turned very high so that it gets warm in the affected room. And that costs.
Find out here how you can take the heating step by step.

Breathe heating: This is how it works!
Breathing the heating is not difficult at all and usually made quickly. Nevertheless, there are a few things you should consider.
1.If you live in a single -family house, the heating pump must first be parked. It is in the basement. Then turn the thermostatic valves full and wait about an hour for the radiators to cool down. It is best to start in single -family houses at the bottom and work up to the top.
Interior to the caretaker must notify the caretaker so that he switches off the heating pump.
A notice:If you live in a rental apartment and cannot notify the caretaker who can turn off the heating pump, you should completely turn the thermostatic valves too before you start.
2.Put a bowl or bucket under the heating valve so that the escaping water is collected. In addition, it makes sense to put a towel under the bucket to catch splashes.
3.Now it is time to venture: Use a square key to turn the valve half a turn against clockwise. When there is air in the radiator, you first hear a hiss until water comes at some point. As soon as water leaves, you can turn the valve back.
You don't have a suitable square key?Here at Amazon there is a whole set with three suitable heating ventilation keys for little money.*
4.In the end, you should check in the basement whether the system pressure has dropped and, if necessary, refill heating water or have it refilled by the caretaker.
