This guide is for homeowners and installers looking to enhance the functionality and aesthetics of their modern radiators. The Elego Manual H Block Angled Radiator Valves offer a durable brass construction and a sleek anthracite gray finish, providing a high-quality finishing touch. A key benefit is their universal compatibility with various radiator types. The primary caveat to be aware of is that these are manual valves, requiring physical adjustment to control heat output.

Yes, these valves feature a 1/2 BSPT radiator coupler and 15mm compression inlets, making them compatible with all Elego radiators and most standard heating systems, including column, panel, and towel rail types.
The 'H Block' refers to the design which often allows for a neater installation, potentially hiding pipework. 'Angled' describes the orientation of the valve, designed for when your pipework comes out of the wall at an angle to meet the radiator valve.
No, these are manual radiator valves. They require physical adjustment of the handle to control the heat output. For thermostatic control, you would need to purchase thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs).
Angled valves are required when the pipework emerging from the wall or floor is not perfectly straight and meets the radiator valve connection at an angle. If your pipes are straight, you would typically need straight or cornered valves.
Yes, radiators require two valves: one for the flow pipe and one for the return pipe. These are supplied as a pair to correctly fit a single radiator.
The valves are constructed from durable solid brass with an ABS component for the handle and cap, finished in a matte anthracite gray.
The water flow is adjusted manually by turning the valve handle. Turning it clockwise will reduce or shut off the flow, while turning it counter-clockwise will increase the flow.
The valve spindle may require tightening. Locate the small nut behind the handle and gently tighten it. If the leak persists, the valve may need replacement.
Ensure the valve handle is fully turned to the off position. There might be debris inside the valve seat. If possible, isolate the radiator, remove the valve, and flush the system. If the issue persists, the valve may need replacement.
The valve may be stiff due to disuse or mineral buildup. Gently try to work the handle back and forth. Ensure no debris is obstructing the valve's movement. If excessively stiff, professional assessment might be needed.
Check that the central heating system is on and the thermostat is set higher than the room temperature. Verify that the valve is correctly fitted on the flow pipe (if the radiator is on the flow side) or return pipe. Check for blockages elsewhere in the heating system.
