Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, ensure the mounting surface is solid brick or reinforced stud work capable of holding a heavy, water-filled double panel radiator. It is recommended to employ a qualified heating engineer to ensure the plumbing connections are secure and the system is balanced. For maintenance, keep the exterior clean by wiping down the white finish with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could damage the paint. Annually, bleed the radiator to remove trapped air, which ensures the entire unit remains hot during operation.
