Heating Questions exists because most heating problems start with a simple question — why has the boiler lost pressure, why is that radiator cold at the top, what does F28 mean — and the answer is usually in a manual nobody can find.
We write plain answers for heating British homes: boilers and radiators, thermostats and controls, hot water, heat pumps and solar, heaters and stoves, damp and mould, insulation, EPCs and bills. Each answer starts with the likely cause and what you can safely check yourself, and says clearly when the job is for a Gas Safe registered engineer.
We don’t sell, install or repair heating. If you spot something that’s wrong or out of date, please let us know through the contact page.
