TRV stands for Thermostatic Radiator Valve. It is a device that regulates the temperature of a radiator to which it is fitted.
The lockshield valve controls the amount of hot water flowing through the radiator. It is used to 'balance' the heating system, ensuring all radiators heat up evenly.
This valve is specifically designed for 15mm angled connections. It is compatible with most standard radiators that have the appropriate inlet size and orientation.
The TRV head has numbered settings (typically 1-5). Higher numbers correspond to higher room temperatures. Consult the product manual for specific temperature equivalents for each setting, as they can vary.
Bleeding radiators is typically needed when you hear gurgling sounds or notice a radiator is only warm at the bottom. It's a good practice to check and bleed radiators at the start of the heating season or if you notice uneven heating.
The matte black finish can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the coating.
Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation or retailer's warranty information for the specific warranty period. Typically, such products come with a multi-year warranty.
Ensure the TRV head is not set to '0' or 'frost protection'. Check that the lockshield valve is fully open. Bleed the radiator to remove trapped air.
Verify the TRV is correctly installed and functioning. Ensure the room thermostat is not overriding the TRV setting. Check that the TRV head is not stuck.
Gently tighten the compression nut on the leaking fitting. If the leak persists, the olive or pipe may be damaged, requiring replacement of the fitting or pipe section.
Gently try to move the TRV head. If it is stiff, it might be slightly seized; try gently rotating it. If very loose, ensure it is properly attached to the valve body.
Compatibility: This valve is designed for 15mm angled radiator connections. Ensure your existing radiator tailpipe and system pipework are compatible. It is suitable for use in closed-loop hydronic heating systems.
