- Install automatic balancing valve (market price 80-150 yuan)
| Question type | Self-examination method | Tool preparation |
|---|---|---|
| clogged pipes | Touch the temperature difference of the pipe entering the house＞10℃ | Infrared thermometer |
| Not enough pressure | Pressure gauge＜0.8MPa | Pressure gauge (available at hardware stores) |
| Filter clogged | The temperature of the return pipe is obviously low | Adjustable wrench, water basin |
3. Inventory of recent innovative solutions
1.Intelligent temperature control valve(Hot discussion on Zhihu): Remotely adjust the flow rate of a single radiator through the mobile APP, and actual measurements can increase the room temperature by 3-5°C.
2.Magnetic descaler(TikTok popular model): Installed in water inlet pipes to reduce scale deposition, monthly sales exceeded 20,000 pieces
3.New regulations for heating companies(Hot search on Weibo): Many places have launched a "temperature measurement refund" policy. If the room temperature does not meet the standard, you can apply for a fee reduction.
