FAQs

What tools do I need for installation?

You'll need a pipe cutter, and possibly a wrench for tightening the compression fitting.

Can I use this valve with different pipe materials?

It is designed for use with the materials commonly used for plumbing. However, always check the compatibility with your existing pipes and radiators before installation.

What is the anthracite finish?

Anthracite is a dark grey color, providing a modern and stylish look to your radiator setup.

How do I know if the compression fitting is tight enough?

Tighten the compression fitting until it is snug. Avoid over-tightening as this can damage the valve.

What if the valve doesn't fit my pipe?

This valve is designed for 15mm and 10mm pipes. Ensure your pipes are the correct size before attempting to install the valve. You may need to replace your pipes or use alternative fittings if they are a different size.

Replacement parts can be found from the same retailer.

Troubleshooting

Tighten the compression fitting slightly. If the leak persists, check the pipe ends for damage or replace the valve.
