FAQs
Does this radiator include valves?
No, valves are typically sold separately. You will need to purchase compatible radiator valves for your heating setup.
Can this be installed in any room?
While designed primarily for bathrooms, it can be installed in any room with a compatible central heating pipe network.
How do I measure the space required?
Ensure you have at least 800mm of vertical wall height and 500mm of width, plus extra room for the valve connections.
Is the black finish prone to peeling?
The finish is high-quality and durable; however, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could compromise the coating.
Can I use this with an electric heating element?
This model is designed for central heating systems. Please consult with a professional installer before attempting to convert it to an electric-only unit.
Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top
The system likely contains trapped air. Bleed the radiator using a radiator key to release the air until water appears.
Radiator is slow to heat up
Check that the thermostatic radiator valve is set to the desired temperature and that the central heating pump is functioning correctly.
Surface shows water marks
Wipe down with a soft, dry microfiber cloth immediately after use to prevent mineral buildup from bathroom steam.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the unit is safely connected to your central heating system. Ensure the wall surface is structural and capable of supporting the weight of the radiator when filled with water. For care, clean the surface periodically using a soft, non-abrasive cloth and mild soapy water to maintain the integrity of the black finish. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may scratch or fade the protective coating.
