Yes, the product includes both the thermostatic head and the matching lockshield valve.
No, this valve is specifically designed for 15mm piping only.
A straight valve is used when the pipework comes directly out of the floor into the bottom of the radiator; choose your valve based on your existing pipe orientation.
Simply rotate the thermostatic dial to your preferred number; higher numbers generally correspond to higher room temperatures.
It is compatible with most standard wet central heating systems, but not with electric-only radiators.
Check if the internal valve pin is stuck due to inactivity; remove the head and gently press the pin to ensure it moves freely.
Ensure the compression nut is sufficiently tightened and that a sufficient amount of PTFE tape or sealant has been applied to the threads.
Verify that the thermostatic head is securely tightened onto the valve body and that the sensor is not blocked by curtains or furniture.
Installation requires basic plumbing knowledge and the ability to drain the central heating circuit safely. Ensure the water supply is shut off and the system is fully drained before removing old valves. Apply PTFE tape to threads where necessary to guarantee a watertight seal. This valve is designed for 15mm copper or plastic pipework. For maintenance, keep the valve head clean of dust and debris to allow the internal sensor to function correctly. Do not use harsh chemical cleaners on the exterior finish, as a simple wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient to keep it looking new.
