Is your boiler acting up? Don't worry! Here’s a friendly guide to help you troubleshoot some common boiler issues from the comfort of your own home. 1. Boiler Isn’t Turning On: Check the power supply: Ensure your boiler is plugged in and switched on. Inspect your fuse box: Make sure none of the switches have tripped. 2. Boiler Has No Pressure or Low Pressure: Check the pressure gauge: Ideally, your boiler pressure should be between 1 and 1.5 bar. Re-pressurise your boiler: Follow your boiler manual to top up the pressure safely. 3. Radiators Not Heating Up: Check your radiator valves: Make sure they're fully open. Bleed your radiators: Use a radiator key to let trapped air out, helping them heat efficiently. 4. Boiler Making Unusual Noises: Identify unusual sounds: Gurgling often indicates air in the system, banging could indicate low water pressure. Bleed the radiators or re-pressurise the boiler (as above) to resolve. 5. Hot Water Not Working Properly: Check thermostat settings: Ensure your hot water thermostat is set correctly. Inspect the boiler timer: Verify it’s set to come on at the correct times. Still Having Issues? If you’ve tried these steps but your boiler still isn’t working as expected—or if you’re uncomfortable attempting any of these steps—don't hesitate to reach out! Drop us an email at info@cteco.co.uk or call 01792446646 , and one of our friendly representatives will get in touch shortly to support you further. Stay warm, stay comfortable—we’re here to help!

If your radiators aren’t working as they should, don’t panic! There are a few simple things you can check before needing to call for help. Here’s a friendly step-by-step guide to help you troubleshoot common radiator problems. 1. Radiator Feels Cold at the Top, Warm at the Bottom: Likely cause: Air trapped in the system. Fix: Bleed your radiator using a radiator key to release the trapped air. Make sure you have a cloth or container ready to catch any water. 2. Radiator Feels Cold at the Bottom, Warm at the Top: Likely cause: Sludge or debris buildup inside the radiator. Fix: This may require a power flush by a professional. For now, try turning off all other radiators except the one with the issue to force hot water through it. 3. One Radiator Isn’t Heating at All: Check the radiator valve: Make sure both valves (on either side of the radiator) are open. Balance your radiators: This involves adjusting valves to ensure even heating—check your boiler manual or online guides. 4. All Radiators Are Cold: Check your boiler: It might not be running properly (see our boiler troubleshooting blog!). Check system pressure: If it’s too low, your central heating may not circulate. 5. Radiators Are Only Warm When Hot Water Is On: Likely cause: Your system may need adjustment. Fix: Check your boiler settings to make sure heating is set separately from hot water. Not Confident? We're Here to Help If any of these steps feel outside your comfort zone, or your radiators still aren’t working as they should, drop us an email at info@cteco.co.uk. One of our friendly team members will be happy to get in touch and support you. We're always here to keep your home warm and cosy!

Having trouble with your thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) or Radbot smart radiator controls? Don’t worry—we’ve got some simple tips to help you get things working again, without needing to pick up the phone. 1. TRV (Thermostatic Radiator Valve) Not Adjusting Temperature Check the valve head: Make sure it’s not loose or stuck. Gently turn it from low to high to see if the pin inside moves. Stuck pin fix: Unscrew the valve head and gently press the pin down with a blunt object (like the back of a spoon). It should spring back up. Still no change? If the pin stays stuck or doesn’t move freely, the valve body might need replacing—contact us for support. 2. TRV Radiator Always Cold Check the valve setting: Ensure the TRV is turned up to a warmer setting. Valve stuck closed: See the stuck pin fix above. A stiff valve can stop hot water from entering the radiator. Other radiators working fine? This likely confirms it’s an isolated valve issue. 3. Radbot Not Responding Check the batteries: Replace with new AA batteries and ensure they are inserted correctly. Reposition Radbot: Make sure it’s fitted tightly to the valve and hasn’t been accidentally knocked loose. Check for error lights: Flashing red lights or no lights may indicate power or connection issues. 4. Radbot Radiator Not Heating Up Check the schedule: Radbot uses room occupancy to heat only when needed. If no movement is detected, it may not trigger heat. Manually override: Press the boost button (+) to open the valve temporarily and check if heat comes through. Other rooms heating? If yes, Radbot may just be in energy-saving mode. 5. Radbot Making Clicking Sounds Normal function: Some clicking is expected as Radbot adjusts the valve. Excessive clicking or no movement: This may suggest a mechanical issue. Try removing and reinstalling the unit. Need Help? If you're still having issues with your TRVs or Radbot units—or you just don’t feel confident trying any of the steps above—email us at info@cteco.co.uk.
