Central heating fault diagnosis
The fault can sit anywhere between the thermostat, boiler and radiators
A central-heating system depends on controls, the heat source and water circulation working together. A fault in any part of that chain can leave the house cold or heating unevenly.
Tell us whether the boiler is running, whether hot water still works, which radiators are affected and what the thermostat shows.
Heating only works in some rooms
Partial heating can point to valves, balancing, zones or circulation problems.
- Some radiators cold
- One floor affected
- TRVs not responding
- Uneven circulation
Boiler runs but heat does not circulate
A running boiler with cold radiators can indicate a pump, valve or flow problem.
- Pump or circulation fault
- Motorised valve issue
- Restricted system flow
- Heat not reaching radiators
Heating cuts out or behaves erratically
Intermittent operation can involve controls, pressure, circulation or the boiler itself.
- Heating stops unexpectedly
- Repeated resets
- Temperature swings
- Fault code or lockout
What to expect
Our radiator repair process
We diagnose the radiator and the wider heating circuit before deciding whether the answer is bleeding, balancing, valve work, circulation repair or replacement.
1
Check the radiator. We look at the temperature pattern, valves and visible connections.
2
Check the wider system. We assess pressure, circulation and whether other radiators are affected.
3
Explain the fault. The likely cause and most appropriate repair or adjustment are discussed.
4
Repair and test. The affected component is repaired or adjusted and the radiator is checked again.

Central heating not working Manchester FAQs
Useful answers before arranging a repair.
The fault may involve the thermostat, programmer, boiler, system pressure, control valves or circulation. The heating demand needs to be traced through the system.
If hot water still works, the boiler may be capable of firing but the heating controls, valves or circulation side may not be operating correctly.
Partial heating can be caused by radiator valves, balancing, trapped air, zone controls or wider circulation problems.
Yes. If hot water cannot circulate through the heating circuit correctly, radiators may stay cold even when the boiler produces heat.
