Regarding oil-filled electric radiators

[no_hypocrisy]

Mine has lost half its heat. For example it isn't as hot and the "on" light isn't on.

Here's the question: I'll guess that the oil in one sector has been exhausted. Can these heaters be repaired or the supply of oil be replenished, or do you throw them away when there's no heat?

Thanks.

1. Probably one of the heating coils has burned out..

Unless you see evidence of a leak that's the most likely diagnosis, they usually have two or three heating coils inside, low is one coil, medium is the other and high is both at the same time.

All the oil does is transfer the heat around, it's not consumed any way.

The other possibility is that the switch has become damaged and just isn't making the proper connection any more, I would take it apart and try to see if I could fix it but if you aren't electrically knowledgeable that's not a course I would advise.

2. Thank you.

I may look into repair instead of replacement.

3. Check youtube for repairs on your model.

There are some oil heater repair vids on YouTube. It may be a simple switch.
