Product Information
Full details
This GoodHome Flat White Type 11 Radiator is designed for spaces where heat output needs are moderate or space is limited, such as cloakrooms or en-suite bathrooms. Its key benefit is its slim profile, allowing for installation in tight areas without compromising on essential heating. A potential caveat is that it may not provide sufficient heat for very large rooms as a primary heat source. This convector radiator features a single panel and single convector fin, offering efficient heating in a compact, white finish.

FAQs
What is a Type 11 radiator?
A Type 11 radiator has a single panel of steel and a single layer of convector fins behind it. This makes it a slim and efficient option for heating smaller spaces.
Is this radiator suitable for a large living room?
This Type 11 radiator is best suited for smaller rooms like cloakrooms or en-suites, or as a secondary radiator in larger rooms to boost heat output. For a large living room as the primary heat source, a radiator with a higher BTU output would likely be necessary.
How do I clean the radiator?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the white finish.
Do I need a professional to install this radiator?
Yes, professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure correct and safe connection to your central heating system.
What are the dimensions of this radiator?
The dimensions are 800mm in height and 600mm in width.
Can I paint this radiator?
While it is possible to paint it, it is best to use radiator-specific paint. However, the manufacturer's warranty may be affected. The current white finish is designed to be neutral and durable.
What is the warranty period?
Specific warranty information is not provided in the product details, but typically radiators come with a manufacturer's warranty. Please check the product packaging or retailer for exact terms.
Troubleshooting
Radiator is not heating up at all
Check if the central heating system is on and functioning. Ensure the radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air.
Radiator is only partially hot
This usually indicates air in the system. Bleed the radiator, starting from the top, until water appears. Ensure the lockshield valve is correctly set.
Radiator is making noise (banging or rattling)
Trapped air is the most common cause. Bleed the radiator. If the noise persists, there might be an issue with water flow or system pressure.
Leaking from valves or connections
Ensure radiator valves are not overtightened. If the leak is from a connection, it may require tightening by a professional plumber or resealing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This radiator is designed for connection to a standard central heating system. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is strongly recommended to ensure correct pipework connections, system bleeding, and mounting. Ensure the wall can support the weight of the radiator, especially when filled with water.
Compatibility: Compatible with most standard wet central heating systems. Ensure your system is capable of supporting the addition of this radiator and that its heat output is appropriate for the room size. Brackets and fixings should be appropriate for your wall type.
Care: To maintain its appearance, wipe the radiator with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the white finish. Periodically check the radiator for any signs of leaks or damage. Ensure dust does not accumulate on or behind the radiator, as this can impede airflow and heating efficiency.
