Building heating with water

Hi everyone,

I'm having difficulties implementing a gas-heated system in the HVAC system part of Open studio. I don't have any experience regarding HVAC system so I would like to ask your help.

What I want is a system consisting of a boiler, delivering heated water to a radiator/CV system in my building and the taps. I implemented the taps, but for some reason the radiator is not taking any power at all. The main consumer of energy is just the pump.

The radiator I'm using is called 'Zone HVAC Baseboard Rad Conv Water' and is connected to the demand part of the loop, just like the taps.

I hope I've managed to describe the system clearly, as I can't upload an image of it (yet) due to the lack of points.

Thank you in advance!
