FAQs

What is the heat output of this radiator?

It provides 278W (949 BTUs) at Delta T30 and 551W (1880 BTUs) at Delta T50.

Can I install this in any room?

It is designed for indoor use in central heating systems, particularly in narrow spaces where floor width is limited.

How do I clean the exterior?

Simply use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that may strip the grey paint.

Are wall brackets included?

Yes, it is designed for secure wall mounting; ensure your wall structure is sound enough to hold the weight of the radiator when filled with water.

What is the material of the radiator?

The Alpha range is constructed from robust steel, ensuring longevity and efficient heat transfer.

Troubleshooting

The radiator is cold at the top.

The radiator likely contains trapped air; perform a bleed using a radiator key to release the air until water appears.

The radiator is cold at the bottom.

This often indicates a build-up of sludge; consult a heating professional to have the system flushed.

No heat despite the boiler being on.

Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is set to the correct position and is not stuck.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish contemporary grey finish
  • High vertical orientation saves floor space
  • Reliable heat output for its size

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure compliance with local plumbing standards. The unit is compatible with standard central heating systems. For ongoing maintenance, dust the column surfaces regularly using a soft, dry cloth to prevent debris accumulation which can insulate the metal and reduce efficiency. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or steel wool, as these can damage the grey finish. Periodically check the radiator valves for any signs of leaks or corrosion to maintain system integrity.
