The Kartell K-RAD Kompact radiator is covered by the Kartell "No Quibble Guarantee" against any manufacturing faults for 10 years.

How do I clean and maintain the radiator?

What are the heat output figures for this radiator?

The radiator has a heat output of 1082 Watts / 3693 BTUs at Delta T50, and 1385 Watts / 4727 BTUs at Delta T60.

Can I use 3/4" valves with this radiator?

Yes, 3/4" valve adaptors are available, which provide a 3/4" connector option to the valve without reducing performance. The standard connections are 1/2".

What is the finish of the radiator?

The radiator has a final coat of white enamel (RAL 9016) applied using an epoxy polyester electrostatic powder coating system that is baked to a hard finish.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up evenly

Ensure the system is properly balanced and bled of air. For single-pipe systems, verify that diversion tees are correctly installed. Check that thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) are not fully closed.

Leaking from connections or valve

Check that all connections, including the plug and vent, are securely tightened. If a leak persists, consult a qualified plumber for assessment and repair.

Radiator making noise

Some expansion and contraction noise is normal. If the noise is excessive or indicates significant movement, ensure the radiator is securely seated on its brackets. Check if plastic inserts are correctly positioned.

Low heat output

Confirm the central heating system is functioning correctly. Check for blockages in pipework or the radiator itself. Ensure the system pressure is adequate and the radiator has been recently bled.

  • Durable steel construction with a high-quality white enamel finish.
  • Includes all necessary components for installation.
  • Modern, space-saving design suitable for various rooms.
  • Backed by a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Kartell K-RAD Kompact radiator comes with everything required for installation, including strong, well-designed brackets that facilitate easy and secure mounting. Plastic inserts help to precisely seat the radiator on the brackets, minimizing noise from expansion and contraction. The package includes a neat, nickel-plated plug and vent for a watertight seal.

Compatibility: This radiator is designed for two-pipe heating systems. For single-pipe installations, it is advisable to incorporate diversion tees into the pipework. This ensures the radiator achieves its design performance by managing water flow correctly. The standard connections are 1/2", with 3/4" valve adaptors available to provide an alternative connection option without compromising performance.

Care: The radiator features a durable white enamel powder coat finish (RAL 9016). To maintain its appearance, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Ensure no harsh chemicals come into contact with the radiator surface.
