    I read that:

    Star-Z NOVA is a 4W circulation pump
    It is in no way suitable for a heating system. She circulates barely stirring.

    But I don't see another one at the moment.
    And I don't know what the author checked by touch. ;-)
    I have generally written about "external pump control".

    Is it possible that the coil in the furnace is stony and because of it?

    Re-read the topic, analyze it and don't be confused.

    Yes. But the boiler would also overheat on hot water heating. You would hear characteristic noises. Something like an electric kettle, like water that heats up quickly.

    First you have to eliminate the simplest things.

    Filter, valves, capacitor.

    Remove the casing from the boiler (slightly upwards and towards you). The screws are unscrewed from the bottom.

    At the bottom right is the boiler pump. Check if it is set to 3rd gear.

    Before you open the filter, you must close the valves. This service (a flat wrench or a wide screwdriver is required) and below the filter must be the second standard one with a handle.

    It may not be.

    The switch looks like in the photo below. That black toggle on the electrical box.

    Well, there is no regulation, when it comes to this coil, when there was a service technician, he drained the water into a bucket And there was some black muck in the coil, earlier there was a problem with these noises from the stove (but the stove was heating) as you wrote, but how to overflow ukal, so far it is quiet, but it does not heat, maybe he forgot to unscrew the valves, he did not unscrew one, maybe and the service technicians also not, how can they look? Are these these?

    This one is open. The other side is the same. The notch on the valve is to be along the pipe. Check this square from below with a notch.

    Look for the second valve somewhere under the filter and check if it's open.

    I wouldn't trust a service technician to clean this filter.

    Personally, I very often come across a dry condenser in the pump. As a rule, if it is below 70% of its capacity, problems with the flow begin.

    Both are open, or to clean this filter it is enough to close only these 2 valves?

    Not. One above the filter and one below the filter. Otherwise you will flood the bathroom.

    Well, I only have a service valve in front of the filter, and then only in the manifolds, do you need to drain the water somewhere else?

    May be. Close the valves on the manifolds and the service one above the filter.
    You will only need to drain a little more water.
    It should not be more than about 1 - 1.5 liters
    Loosen the stopper slightly and catch the water until it stops flowing.
    Don't wring it out all at once.

    The same situation with my in-laws last year, we thought that the installation was frozen - except that some of the pipes were warm and the radiators were cold. It turned out that during the stop, every now and then the muck accumulated in one place blocked the installation and only flushing the installation helped.

    Only at the entrance to the building I have 2 filters, then another 2, so there is no muck to get in, and how did you flush the installations?

    We dumped water in turn from all the radiators on the return valves, I allowed and watched what was pouring out of the main pipe, which - a lot of muck fell out, and there are filters on the central one, there was such a fine black sludge, something like dissolved copper patina?

    Maybe someone has an idea what else can be done, so far filters have been cleaned, radiators deaerated, a checked three-way valve, a proven pump in the furnace (it turns, but it's hard for me to judge). Hot pipes at the entrance, already cold by the heaters at the entrance, any idea? The service technician wants to clean my coils, but is she not also responsible for the warm water in the tap?

    Just cleaning the coil for nothing. Your system is clogged with silt, so you need to "unplug" it. Use a measure such as Sentinel X400

    When draining the water it is slightly yellowish, but you can barely see it, the installation is 5 years old, so rather not too old. Does anyone know someone from the southern suburbs of Warsaw worth recommending? What may be the cost of flushing the system?

    A day ago, the reason they were looking for a circulation pump.
    Flushing the entire installation today.
    I would be afraid of what tomorrow will bring :)

    Bleed the manifolds, radiators, check if the spindles in the valves under the heads are working properly, replace the capacitor in the pump (even on trial. The cost of one in an electrical store is about PLN 5)

    I have been working in the service for 10 years. I replaced hundreds of capacitors, unblocked dozens of blocked valves on the heads, vented thousands of radiators and flushed one installation that had been air-conditioned for several years.

    Good luck

    You will do it yourself. Buy "chemistry", add to the system, and then follow the manufacturer's instructions. It will be the cheapest and you will become the 'hero of the house' :)

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a heating issue where the stove reaches temperatures of 70-80 degrees Celsius, but the radiators remain cold. Users suggest various troubleshooting steps, including bleeding the radiators, checking the circulation pump, and inspecting valves for blockages. The author mentions having a Vitodens 100 stove and a Vitocell 100 tank, with a service technician previously addressing a leak that may have affected the system's pressure. Recommendations include cleaning filters, ensuring proper pump operation, and potentially flushing the system to remove blockages. The conversation highlights the importance of checking all valves and the condition of the pump, with some users suggesting the use of chemical solutions for cleaning the system.
