Does your radiator sound like a kettle boiling? Is your radiator extremely noisy? Does your radiator hiss? Is your radiator rattling? Does the sound of your radiator banging keep your up at night?
Radiators are a great way to provide heating for your home, but they can also be noisy. This is a common problem that many people face. Radiators are not supposed to make noise, but if yours does, it might just need some maintenance. A couple of easy fixes could rapidly get rid of all that racket. 
There are many reasons why a radiator might be making noise. Some of the most common reasons include:
● There is an air leak in the system
● The radiator is not properly sealed or insulated
● Air pressure in the house has increased and needs to be fixed
