The Lux Heat Horizontal Column Radiator is designed for homeowners looking to elevate their interior aesthetic with a blend of traditional charm and modern heating performance. This grey-finished, 17-section radiator provides efficient warmth for medium-sized spaces, though its specific BTU output makes it best suited for supplementary heating in smaller rooms or well-insulated areas rather than acting as the sole heat source for large open-plan living zones.

The radiator measures 300mm in height and 785mm in width.
While it can be installed in a bathroom, it is not a dedicated towel radiator and lacks specific moisture-resistant ratings for wet zones; consult a plumber regarding placement.
Yes, it is designed for standard water-based central heating systems.
This model consists of 17 individual columns/sections.
Typically, radiators are supplied with standard wall brackets, but verify the contents with your retailer upon delivery.
You should use a BTU calculator based on your room's dimensions, window type, and insulation levels to ensure 1,276 BTU is sufficient for your specific space.
Air is trapped in the system; use a radiator key to bleed the air valve until water appears.
This may indicate a buildup of sludge or a circulation issue; consult a heating professional to flush the system.
Tighten the gland nut on the valve; if the leak persists, the valve may need replacing.
Installation should always be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the radiator is correctly integrated with your existing pipework and properly balanced. Ensure the wall surface is load-bearing, as column radiators carry significant weight once filled with water. For maintenance, keep the exterior clean by wiping it down with a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive chemicals that might damage the grey finish. Periodically bleed the radiator using a radiator key to remove trapped air, which ensures the entire unit heats evenly from top to bottom.
