2.Check the system status
Make sure the heating system is on and in working order.
3.Manual knob valve opening
Locate the valve: Locate the knob valve on the heating pipe.
Rotate counterclockwise: Rotate the knob counterclockwise, usually to the maximum angle to fully open.
4.The temperature-controlled valve opens
Locate the valve: Locate the temperature control valve with the temperature setting.
Regulate the temperature: Rotate the thermostat to the desired temperature, usually marked with a number or maximum value to indicate the maximum temperature.
5.Check the heating effect
After opening the valve, wait a while for the radiator to heat up and confirm that the heating is working properly.
6.Precautions
Before and after opening the valve, make sure there is no water leakage.
If it is very difficult to rotate the valve, it may be necessary to use a lubricant or seek professional help.

If the valve cannot be opened or the system is abnormal, the maintenance personnel should be contacted in time.
Valve opening for heating pipes is usually straightforward and simple, but proper operation and regular maintenance can ensure the efficient and long-term operation of the entire heating system.
