FAQs

What is the recommended room size for this radiator?

With a heat output of 4006 BTU/Hr, this radiator is suitable for medium to large rooms. For precise sizing, consult with a heating professional or use a BTU calculator specific to your room's dimensions and insulation levels.

Are the valves included with the radiator?

No, valves are sold separately. You will need to purchase compatible valves to connect the radiator to your heating system.

How often should I bleed the radiator?

You should bleed the radiator if you notice it is not heating up evenly, especially if it's cold at the top. For general maintenance, bleeding annually or when the heating system is serviced is a good practice.

What maintenance is required for the Gloss White finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the finish.

What is a system inhibitor and why is it important?

A system inhibitor is a chemical additive that protects your central heating system from corrosion and sludge buildup, ensuring efficient operation and extending the life of your radiators and boiler. It is recommended to add after installation and periodically thereafter.

What type of pipe connection does this radiator use?

This radiator uses 1/2" British Standard Pipe tappings, which are standard for most UK domestic central heating systems.

What is the warranty period for this radiator?

The Balterley Vertical Double Panel Radiator comes with a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee from the date of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Check if the central heating system is on. Ensure valves are open. Bleed the radiator to release trapped air. If the issue persists, check for blockages or consult a professional.

Radiator is cold at the top, warm at the bottom

This indicates trapped air. Bleed the radiator by opening the bleed valve until water begins to trickle out, then close the valve.

Leaking from connections

Ensure all fittings are securely tightened. If leaks persist, the seals may need replacement; consult a professional plumber.

Low heat output

Ensure the radiator is properly sized for the room. Check for sludge or blockages in the system. Confirm the system inhibitor has been added.
