Malz1902Hello everyone,
We have underfloor heating in the house with one heating manifold in the basement, on the ground floor, and in the attic, each with 6 circuits. In the basement and on the ground floor, the sight glasses are clean and easy to read, but not in the attic. So, I thought I would clean them.
I opened the heating manifold, turned off the supply and return lines, closed all heating circuits, and switched off the Regolux. Well, no luck. I managed to remove the tube and clean it, but after reassembling everything, nothing happens inside the tube anymore. The supply and return are open again, but no matter how I turn the sight glass, the inner white pin stays at 3 l/min (0.8 gallons per minute) and the red float inside the glass is stuck at 0 l/min (0 gallons per minute).
These flow meters—or however you want to call them—are Regolux ® 0-3 l/min (0-0.8 gallons per minute).
By the way, reading the manual would have helped; it states that cleaning the Regolux ® flow indicator is not recommended.
Later, I tried the same procedure on one in the basement, and it worked without any problems. So, remove and reassemble, and everything still runs fine.
