Default Steam Heat Costs


insulte first...

make sure the radiator air valves are working correctly,

When the heat comes on and the rads are cool, the valves need to be
open to let the air out of the rad and the steam in...then when the hot
steam gets to the valve, it needs to close to keep the steam from
escaping...

also try putting small fans to blow air through your radiators
effectivly increasing their size.
