FAQs
Are these valves bi-directional?
No, these Maesta radiator valves are not bi-directional. The thermostatic head must be installed on the flow pipe, and the lockshield valve on the return pipe for correct operation and to benefit from thermostatic control and frost protection.
What size pipework do these valves connect to?
The valves feature 15mm compression inlets for connecting to your pipework.
What is the radiator connection size?
The radiator coupler size is 1/2 BSPT.
How do I clean the brushed brass finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
What does the frost protection feature do?
The frost protection feature allows a small amount of water to circulate when the room temperature drops below approximately 7°C, preventing your radiator and pipework from freezing and potential damage.
Can I install these on any type of radiator?
These valves are designed for water radiator ranges and are particularly suited for traditional and cast iron style radiators. Ensure you have the correct pipework connections (15mm compression, 1/2 BSPT).
What is included in the box?
The box contains one Thermostatic Valve, one Lockshield Valve, and a User/Install Manual.
Troubleshooting
Radiator not heating up or overheating
Verify that the thermostatic valve head is installed on the flow pipe and the lockshield on the return pipe. Check that the thermostatic head is not set to its minimum setting or frost protection mode inadvertently.
Valve is leaking
Ensure all compression fittings are securely tightened. If the leak persists from the valve body or head, contact customer support.
Thermostatic head is stiff or unresponsive
Gently try to rotate the head. If it remains stiff, carefully remove the head (refer to manual) and clean the valve stem with a damp cloth. Do not use lubricants.
Frost protection not engaging
Ensure the thermostatic head is set to the frost protection symbol (usually a snowflake). The valve should allow minimal water flow when ambient temperature drops below approximately 7°C.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Enhances radiator aesthetics with a classic brushed brass and wood design.
Provides precise temperature control, enabling energy savings and personalized comfort.
Durable construction ensures a long lifespan.
Includes frost protection to prevent system damage in cold temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the heating system is turned off and drained before installation.
Identify the flow and return pipes of your radiator. The thermostatic valve head must be installed on the flow pipe, and the lockshield valve on the return pipe. Incorrect installation will impair function.
Connect the 15mm compression inlets to your pipework and the 1/2 BSPT coupler to the radiator.
Tighten all connections securely but avoid over-tightening.
Once installed, refill the system and bleed any air.
Compatibility:
Suitable for all water radiator ranges.
Designed for traditional and cast iron style radiators.
Requires 15mm compression fittings for pipework.
Requires 1/2 BSPT connection to the radiator.
Available in Angled, Corner, and Straight orientations to match your pipework.
Care:
Clean the brushed brass body and wooden handle with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the finish.
Periodically check connections for any signs of leaks.
Ensure the thermostatic head moves freely. If stiff, it may require gentle cleaning around the valve stem.
