FAQs

Are the valves included with this radiator?

No, the radiator valves and any decorative pipe covers must be purchased separately.

Can I install this on any wall?

It should be mounted on a solid wall or a stud wall with appropriate reinforcement, as the unit will be heavy once filled with water.

How do I maintain the pewter finish?

Clean only with a soft, dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners.

What is the height and width of this unit?

The radiator measures 1800mm in height and 380mm in width.

Is a bleed plug included?

Yes, a bleed plug is provided in the box to allow for easy maintenance of the system.

Is this radiator compatible with all central heating systems?

It is designed for standard domestic central heating systems. For specific pressure ratings, consult your plumber.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top but warm at the bottom

Air is trapped inside. Use the provided bleed plug to release the trapped air until water flows steadily.

Radiator is not heating up at all

Check that the radiator valves are fully open and ensure the central heating pump is functioning correctly.

Leaking at the pipe connection

The valve connection may be loose or require additional PTFE tape. Turn off the heating, isolate the radiator, and reseal the connection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Lux Heat vertical radiator requires a standard central heating setup. Since the radiator utilizes 1/2-inch BSP connections, you will need to purchase matching radiator valves—either angled or straight, depending on your pipe orientation—separately.

  1. Preparation: Identify the wall material and ensure it can support the weight of the water-filled radiator using the included wall plugs.
  2. Mounting: Use the provided wall fixings to secure the brackets, ensuring the unit is level to facilitate proper bleeding.
  3. Connection: Install the valves using appropriate plumbing tape (PTFE) to prevent leaks.
  4. Bleeding: Once the system is filled, use the included bleed plug to release trapped air to ensure the radiator heats evenly.

For ongoing care, wipe the pewter finish periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or steel wool, as these can scratch the metallic coating.
