Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure your pipework is 15mm copper or plastic pipe.
- Isolation: Always drain the affected section of the heating system before removing old valves to prevent water damage.
- Installation: Use a suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape if required, though compression joints typically seal via the olive. Tighten the compression nut firmly, but avoid over-tightening which can damage the olive or pipe.
- Compatibility: Verify your pipe orientation. This valve is designed for wall-fed pipes. If your pipes come from the floor, you may require a different valve configuration.
- Care: To maintain the silver finish, clean only with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, which can scratch the chrome plating.
