The Signature Wooden Head thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) and lockshield pair is an ideal choice for homeowners looking to combine traditional Victorian-inspired aesthetics with precise modern climate control. It is best suited for those renovating period properties or adding a vintage touch to a living space, offering efficient heat regulation through its built-in wax sensor. One caveat to consider is that the angled design requires specific pipe orientation, so users should verify their existing radiator plumbing configuration before purchase to ensure a seamless installation.

It is designed for standard UK radiators using 1/2 inch BSP connections, specifically those requiring an angled valve configuration.
The wax expands and contracts with temperature changes, automatically adjusting the valve opening to maintain your desired room temperature.
If you are comfortable draining your heating system and handling basic plumbing, it is a manageable DIY task, though professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.
Yes, this product is supplied as a pair including both the thermostatic valve and the matching manual lockshield valve.
Turn the valve head to the designated frost protection symbol (often marked with an asterisk or snowflake icon) to keep the system at a low, safe temperature.
Check if the thermostat head is stuck. Remove the head and ensure the valve pin moves freely.
Ensure the connection is tightened securely and verify that enough PTFE tape was applied to the threads.
Ensure the valve is not obstructed by curtains or furniture, which can cause the sensor to read an incorrect room temperature.
Installation of this angled valve set is straightforward for those with basic plumbing knowledge, but it is recommended to drain the radiator system prior to replacement. Ensure your pipework utilizes the standard 1/2 inch BSP threading typical of UK systems. When installing, use PTFE tape on the threads to ensure a leak-free seal. For maintenance, keep the valve clear of dust and debris to ensure the sensor can accurately gauge the surrounding air temperature. To clean the bronze finish and wooden head, use a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive chemicals or harsh scouring pads, which could strip the bronze finish or damage the wood grain.
