英国能源提供商Octopus Energy正敦促屋主快速进行两分钟的锅炉检查, As winter cold snaps worsen, UK energy provider Octopus Energy is urging homeowners to perform a quick two-minute boiler check to avoid higher heating bills. 专家警告说,不适当的锅炉压力——要么太低,要么太高——可能导致取暖效率低下,导致煤气使用增加,能源浪费。 Experts warn that improper boiler pressure—either too low or too high—can cause inefficient heating, leading to increased gas use and wasted energy. 通常由于出血的散热器没有压压或漏水管而造成低压,导致低温散热器和温水不足。 Low pressure, often due to bleeding radiators without repressurizing or leaking pipes, results in lukewarm radiators and weak hot water. 如果锅炉是冷的(1.0-1.5巴)或加热的(约2.0巴),则检查压力表,然后根据需要通过加注水或流出散热器来调整。 The fix is simple: check the pressure gauge when the boiler is cold (1.0–1.5 bar) or heating (around 2.0 bar), then adjust by topping up water or bleeding a radiator if needed. Octopus Energy说,这种基本维修在供暖高峰期可以节省费用。 Octopus Energy says this basic maintenance could save money during peak heating periods.
