How do you turn on the radiators?
Is this a bug? When I install them they are off (generate no heat) and I've checked every menu without luck to turn them up. My peeps are freezing!

What level are you using them on? If one of the first 3, perhaps the fixed temperature makes them have no effect. I'm only on University but they have had an effect so far.

check your temp overlay and make sure they are even needed for that level and if they do check the ground in the overlay near the radiators to see if they changed colors at all

They are always on. The heatmap for temperature is just garbage. You can see a subtle shift around the radiator in Temp overlay, or if you just hover over a radiator for 2 seconds.

I'm at the hospital Tumble and have the challenge to get to 90 degrees using radiators. I have the place glowing red and it says "nope you're still at 56 degrees." Really frustrated. Is there a bug in the radiators?
It's an average of all owned buildings. If you have 4 buildings and only one of them is fully heated, you're looking at about 25% heating efficiency. Even if there's nothing in the empty buildings.

i can't find how much it's costing me to heat the place, i don't don't think you can turn them up pr down.. but i'm not sure if it costs any extra to run them, so the more you have the higher the heating bill??

It's not a challenge to increase the temperature to scorching hot, it's a challenge to get most of the hospital at an acceptable temperature. Putting the radiators near each other will just make it too hot instead of too cold, which counts against you when considering thermal comfort.

There is no running cost to the radiators or aircon units after you place them. There were running costs in Theme Hospital.

You do have to repair AC though. Which is very irritating, especially since it uses the same job assignment as repairing things that are actually important, so it doesn't work out as well as it does in cold hospitals to set some good maintenance janitors to repair-only.

Also I can't actually figure out what good thermal comfort even DOES for patients. It doesn't cause a happiness penalty (despite the description you get in the hospitals that introduce it), so all I can think of is it makes health or hygiene drop faster. Or it's just bugged and does nothing to patients (and a minor happiness penalty to staff).
