Abstract: A heating device operating with liquid fuel in the single-line mode includes a fuel pump which draws fuel from a supply tank and delivers it into a pressure line region communicating with an atomiser nozzle opening into a combustion chamber, wherein excess fuel is returned from the pressure region to the suction side of the fuel pump by way of a pressure regulator, a return line and a bypass line. Arranged between the return line and the bypass line is a venting apparatus including an actuating element which is reciprocable between an operating position and a venting position and which in the operating position connects the return line to the bypass line to reliably seal the medium in the lines towards the exterior and in the venting position connects the return line to the exterior of the heating device and in that case closes the bypass line.
