The UK Radiators Alpha 2 Column Radiator is designed for homeowners seeking a balance between high-performance heating and industrial aesthetics. Ideal for larger rooms requiring both visual impact and reliable warmth, this 768mm wide unit provides a robust 2221 BTU output at T50. While its grey finish is perfect for loft-style interiors, users should ensure their wall structure can support the weight of a multi-column steel radiator before installation.

T50 is the standard temperature delta used to measure radiator performance, representing a 50-degree Celsius difference between the radiator and the room temperature.
It is not recommended to paint the radiator, as it may affect the heat output and void the manufacturer's finish warranty.
While the finish is durable, it is not explicitly designed for high-humidity bathroom environments. Consult with a professional about proper ventilation if considering bathroom installation.
This specific Alpha model is 768mm wide.
Wipe down with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive sponges.
The radiator likely contains trapped air. Use a radiator key to bleed the air from the bleed valve until water begins to trickle out.
Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is turned to the open position and ensure the central heating system is pressurized correctly.
Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the radiator is correctly plumbed into your central heating system. Given its size and weight, ensure the mounting wall is load-bearing and that appropriate fixings are used.
Compatibility: This unit is compatible with standard closed-loop central heating systems. Check your pipe centers before installation to ensure the inlet and outlet match the radiator ports.
Care: Clean the surface periodically using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the grey finish. Periodically check for any signs of leaks at the valve connections.
