The radiator installation is the second thing that needs to be done after the purchase of the radiator. The general consumer is not sure about the installation method of the radiator and the tools required for installation. Therefore, most consumers will choose to hire a professional installer to install the radiator. Due to the uneven level of professional water products of the radiator installation masters, many consumers have installed such radiators in the home. In order to avoid similar problems when installing the radiator, it is necessary for consumers to know in advance the problems that may be encountered during the installation of the radiator. Familiar with the precautions for the installation of the radiator, can effectively avoid the installation of professional technicians with poor professional skills. Let's take a look at the following, along with the small series, what problems will be encountered during the installation of the radiator, and what should be noted.
Radiator installation precautions 1
Before the construction, cover the furniture and other items with cloth or plastic to avoid dust falling into the heat dissipation port of the household appliance during the construction process.
Radiator installation precautions II
The installation of the radiator should be as close as possible to the area where the air convection is strong under the window or at the door, which is beneficial to ensure the indoor heating effect. Where the living room and bedroom have windows, the radiator is most suitable for installation under the window, and should not be too close to the ground to avoid affecting the air circulation.
Radiator installation precautions three
Choose a radiator with a similar appearance to the wall. The radiator is mounted on the wall and it is easy to be noticed. If the appearance and shape cannot match the interior decoration style, the overall aesthetics will be affected. Because the radiator is large in size and will not change after half of the installation, the color and style of the radiator directly affect the entire home decoration style.
Radiator installation precautions four
Since the house has been renovated, it is necessary to carry out the construction on the basis of not destroying the existing decoration during the installation of the heating. When installing the pipe, it is inevitable to make holes in the wall, so it is necessary to remind the construction personnel to protect the details of the wall.
Radiator installation precautions five
It is best to use a double pipe with the same pipe system, and the branch pipe should not exceed 1.5 meters.
Radiator installation notes six
The heating pipe will expand with heat. If the pipe is not densely locked, the pipe will be pulled down during heating, which will affect the appearance. Therefore, it is better to use an aluminum-plastic composite PPR steady-state pipe with a small expansion coefficient. The choice of radiator heating pipes is also important, and the heating pipes must have good resistance to high temperatures and corrosion.
Radiator installation precautions seven
Be sure to pay attention to the process of pressure test and pressure keeping. The perfect pressure holding data is the best proof to prevent the hidden danger of water leakage. The test of the radiator is the last part of the quality of the radiator and the most important part. Only the radiator that has passed the final test pressure is the radiator that will not leak.
Radiator installation precautions eight
It is best to install an automatic exhaust valve at the highest point of the heating system, otherwise the hot water will not flow due to the air resistance, resulting in the radiator not being hot. The automatic bleed valve of the radiator is generally provided directly by the radiator manufacturer. Consumers must remember to purchase the automatic bleed valve of the manufacturer when purchasing the radiator.
