FAQs

Are these valves suitable for all types of radiators?

Yes, these valves are compatible with all Elego water radiator ranges, including heated towel rails, column radiators, panel radiators, vertical flat tube radiators, and aluminium radiators, provided they have a 1/2 BSPT connection.

Do I need a professional to install these valves?

While basic DIY plumbing skills are sufficient for many, professional installation is recommended to ensure correct and safe fitting, especially if you are not experienced with plumbing.

What does 'bi-directional' mean for these valves?

It means the valve can be fitted on either the incoming hot water pipe (flow) or the outgoing cooler water pipe (return) of your radiator, offering flexibility during installation.

How do I adjust the water flow?

The valve handle can be rotated manually to open or close the valve, thereby increasing or decreasing the flow of water through the radiator.

What is the material of these radiator valves?

They are constructed from durable, solid brass with a polished white finish.

What is the thread size for the radiator connection?

The radiator coupler thread size is 1/2 BSPT.

What is the compression inlet size for connecting to the pipework?

The compression inlets are 15mm.

Troubleshooting

Valve is leaking after installation.

Check that all compression fittings and the BSPT thread are securely tightened. Ensure pipework is clean and free from debris. If the leak persists, the internal seal may be faulty and the valve may need replacement.

Radiator not heating up or cooling down properly.

Ensure the valve is fully open or closed as intended. Check that the valve is not obstructed internally. Verify that the flow and return pipes are correctly connected to the radiator.

Difficulty turning the valve handle.

The valve may be stiff due to mineral deposits over time. Gently try to work the handle back and forth. If it remains stiff, it might require professional servicing or replacement.
