Product Information

Full details

The Inta Modern Radiator Valve (15mm) is an essential component for homeowners and contractors looking to upgrade their central heating systems with a reliable, aesthetic control solution. Designed for use with modern towel rails and radiators where pipework originates from the wall, this valve offers precise temperature regulation through its liquid-filled sensor. While it provides excellent build quality and a sleek chrome finish, users should note that its angled configuration is specifically engineered for wall-fed pipework, meaning it may not be suitable for all floor-fed radiator installations.

FAQs

Does this valve work with 10mm pipe?

No, this is a 15mm compression valve. You would need a 15mm to 10mm reducing set to use it with 10mm pipe.

Can I use this for a floor-fed radiator?

This is an angled valve intended for wall-fed pipes. Installing it on floor-fed pipes will create awkward pipe bends.

Does the temperature range go up to 30 degrees?

Yes, the sensor has a control range of 0 to 30 degrees Celsius.

Is the finish suitable for bathrooms?

The high-quality chrome finish is designed to be moisture-resistant and ideal for bathroom towel rail installations.

What is the maximum pressure rating?

The valve supports a maximum working pressure of 10 bar.

Do I need special tools to install this?

Standard plumbing tools, such as adjustable spanners or pipe wrenches, are sufficient for installation.

Troubleshooting

The radiator is not heating up

Ensure the valve head is not set to the lowest temperature setting or that the system has been bled of air pockets.

Water leaking at the compression joint

Ensure the pipe end is square and free of burrs, then re-tighten the compression nut. If the leak persists, replace the olive.

Valve makes a whistling sound

This often indicates high flow velocity; try partially closing the lockshield valve on the other side of the radiator to balance the system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and modern aesthetic chrome finish
  • Anti-chatter technology reduces system noise
  • Wide temperature control range
  • Robust construction with high-pressure support

Cons

  • Specifically designed for wall-fed pipework
  • Not intended for floor-fed installations
  • Professional installation recommended to prevent leaks

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure your pipework is 15mm copper or plastic pipe.

  1. Isolation: Always drain the affected section of the heating system before removing old valves to prevent water damage.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
