FAQs

Can this radiator be used with an electric-only system?

No, this model is designed specifically for connection to a standard domestic central heating system.

Does the radiator come with valves?

No, radiator valves are not included and must be purchased separately to match your existing pipework.

What is the warranty period?

The Lux Heat Oval Radiator includes a 5-year manufacturer's warranty against manufacturing defects.

What is the projection from the wall?

The total projection of the radiator from the wall is 85mm.

Is the finish suitable for high-humidity areas like bathrooms?

Yes, it is suitable, but ensure the room is well-ventilated to prevent potential long-term corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

Air is trapped inside the radiator; use the provided bleed valve to release trapped air until water flows steadily.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a sludge buildup or an imbalance in the system; a system flush may be required by a professional.

Leaking around valves

Check that all connections are tightened correctly or apply additional PTFE tape to the valve threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking modern pink aesthetic serves as a room feature
  • Vertical orientation ideal for narrow wall spaces
  • Robust 5-year warranty provides long-term peace of mind
  • Compact 85mm projection minimizes intrusion into floor space

Cons

  • Limited heat output not suitable for large or high-ceiling rooms
  • Bold pink color may not suit all interior design palettes
  • Single-panel design has lower heat retention compared to double-panel alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the radiator is correctly integrated into your central heating system.

  • Mounting: Use the provided wall fixings and brackets. Ensure the wall structure is capable of supporting the weight of the steel radiator when filled with water.
  • Pipe Centers: The radiator requires pipe centers set to 390mm. Verify your existing pipework matches these specifications before beginning installation.
  • Care Instructions: Clean the radiator surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the pink finish over time. Periodically check the bleed valve for air locks to ensure the unit stays fully heated across the entire surface.
