FAQs

Are valves included with the Riace radiator?

No, valves are not included and must be purchased separately to suit your specific plumbing configuration.

Can I install this radiator in a bathroom?

While it is a designer radiator suitable for many rooms, ensure it is installed away from direct water spray and in an area with adequate ventilation to protect the finish.

Is this radiator compatible with combi boilers?

Yes, it is compatible with all standard central heating systems, including those powered by combi boilers.

How do I clean the Elk Brown finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soapy water. Never use abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the powder-coated finish.

Does the radiator come with wall mounting brackets?

Yes, the radiator is supplied with the necessary wall mounting brackets to ensure a secure fit.

What is the primary benefit of the double-panel design?

The double-panel design provides a significantly higher heat output compared to single-panel radiators, making it better suited for larger rooms or colder climates.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

Air is trapped inside the radiator; use a bleed key to release the air until water appears.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This often indicates a buildup of sludge or debris; system power flushing may be required.

Radiator fails to heat up

Check that the radiator valves are fully open and ensure the central heating system is pressurized correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure the radiator is mounted on a structurally sound wall capable of supporting its weight. Since this unit is compatible with all standard central heating systems, it can be plumbed in as a direct replacement for existing units or installed as part of a new system.

  1. Installation: Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct pressure balancing and to prevent leaks.
  2. Valves: You must purchase compatible valves separately, as they are not included in the box.
  3. Maintenance: To keep the Elk Brown finish in peak condition, wipe the exterior periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the powder-coated surface.
  4. Bleeding: Regularly bleed the radiator using a standard bleed key to release any trapped air and ensure efficient water circulation.
