Hot Water System FAQ:
The heating in my apartment is controlled by a central thermostat that also controls heat to the other apartments. The others seem to be fine but I am getting no heat in my place. The radiators heat up for a short while sometimes and then go cold, there is some hissing sound as well in one and a knocking sound in another. I have also noticed that when I shower the water in the bathroom goes cold all of a sudden and when I turn down the cold water it gets warm again. I have spoken to my landlord about this and hopefully the heating system will be fixed but I am wondering what is going on? Could the heating and hot water be related?
