Regarding oil-filled electric radiators [View all]

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.
