FAQs

What type of heating system is this radiator best suited for?

The Kartell K-RAD Kompact Radiator is designed primarily for two-pipe heating installations. For single-pipe systems, using diversion tees is recommended for optimal performance.

What is included with the radiator?

The radiator comes complete with factory-fitted top grille and side panels, wall brackets, a fixing kit (including plugs and screws), and a nickel-plated plug and air vent.

How do I clean the radiator?

Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the white enamel finish.

What is the guarantee period for this radiator?

The radiator is covered by the Kartell "No Quibble Guarantee" against any manufacturing faults for 10 years from the date of purchase.

Can I use different sized pipe connections?

The radiator has 4 x 1/2" connections as standard. 3/4" valve adaptors are available separately, which can provide a 3/4" connector option without reducing performance.

What does 'Type 11' mean?

Type 11 refers to a single panel radiator with one convector, a grille, and side panels. This configuration offers efficient heating in a compact unit.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating evenly

Check if the system is a two-pipe installation. If single-pipe, ensure diversion tees are correctly installed. Bleed any trapped air from the radiator using the air vent.

Leaking connections

Ensure the nickel-plated plug and vent are securely tightened. Check pipework connections and fittings for any damage and tighten if necessary.

Noise from the radiator

Ensure the radiator is correctly seated on the plastic inserts of the brackets to minimize expansion and contraction noise.

Radiator appears damaged on arrival

Contact the retailer immediately. The product is covered by the Kartell "No Quibble Guarantee" against manufacturing faults.
