Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up

Check if the central heating system is operational. Ensure radiator valves are open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air. If the issue persists, consult a professional heating engineer.

Uneven heating

The radiator may need balancing. Ensure the lockshield valve is correctly set. If one side is significantly cooler than the other, it might indicate an issue with system flow or blockages. Professional assessment is recommended.

Leaking connections

Turn off the heating system and isolate the radiator. Gently tighten leaking fittings. If the leak persists, the seal may be faulty and require replacement by a qualified plumber.

Strange noises (e.g., banging, whistling)

Noises can indicate air in the system (bleed the radiator), water hammer (check system pressure and pipework), or a faulty valve. Consult a professional if the cause is unclear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

This DuraTherm radiator is compatible with all types of domestic central heating systems and features standard 1/2 inch inlet and outlet connections, common in British plumbing. It conforms to BS EN 442 standards.
