Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
These TRV valves feature 15mm compression inlets and a 1/2 BSPT radiator coupler, making them compatible with most standard water radiator ranges. They are designed for modern heating systems.
Setup:
- Identify Flow and Return: Determine which pipe is the flow (hot water entering the radiator) and which is the return (cooler water leaving).
- Positioning: Crucially, the thermostatic head must be installed on the *flow* side, and the lockshield valve on the *return* side. These valves are *not bi-directional*.
- Installation: Connect the compression inlets to the radiator tails and the radiator coupler to the appropriate valve body, following the included user manual for detailed steps.
- Orientation: This specific model is a 'Corner' orientation. Ensure this matches your pipework.
Care:
- Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the matte finish.
- Periodically check for leaks around the connections.
- To fully shut off the valve, consult the online user manual for specific instructions, as it may differ from standard methods.
