FAQs

Does this radiator come with valves?

No, valves are not included. You will need to purchase standard 1/2 inch BSP radiator valves separately.

Can I install this on a stud wall?

The radiator is heavy, especially when filled with water. It is recommended to mount it on a solid wall or ensure there is adequate timber backing in your stud wall to support the weight.

What is the warranty period?

The product is covered by a 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects.

What does BS EN 442 certification mean?

It is the European standard that specifies the requirements and test methods for radiators, ensuring they meet quality and thermal performance criteria.

How far does the radiator stick out from the wall?

The unit has an 85 mm projection from the wall.

Can I paint the radiator a different color?

It is not recommended, as painting over the factory-applied grey finish can affect heat dissipation and void the warranty.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

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

Radiator does not heat up at all

Ensure the radiator valves are open. If they are open and the pipework is cold, there may be an issue with the system flow, requiring a heating professional.

Visible leaks at the connection points

Check that the 1/2 inch BSP connections are tightened properly. If the leak persists, the thread tape or sealant may need to be reapplied by a plumber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Vertical orientation saves valuable wall space
  • Modern, sophisticated grey finish
  • Robust mild steel construction
  • Includes all necessary wall fixings and brackets
  • Backed by a 5-year warranty

Cons

  • Requires professional plumbing for installation
  • Valves not included with the unit
  • 85 mm projection may extend further than some ultra-slim units

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure all joints are leak-free and the unit is properly balanced. The radiator utilizes standard 1/2 inch BSP connections, making it compatible with most standard residential radiator valves. Before installation, ensure your existing central heating system has been flushed to remove debris. To maintain the finish, wipe the surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth; avoid using abrasive chemicals or acidic cleaners, as these can damage the grey powder coating. Regularly check the bleed valve at the start of the heating season to ensure no air is trapped inside the panel.
