FAQs

Is this radiator suitable for electric central heating systems?

No, the Vertirad Slim Designer Panel Radiator is designed specifically for water central heating systems.

What is included with the radiator?

The radiator itself is included. Wall fixings and radiator valves are typically sold separately and should be purchased according to your system's requirements.

How do I clean the radiator?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the powder-coated finish.

What is the warranty period?

The radiator comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee, subject to terms and conditions.

Can this radiator be installed in a bathroom?

While stylish, it's designed for water central heating. If installing in a bathroom, ensure it is appropriately rated and installed by a professional to meet safety standards for wet areas.

How does the vertical design save space?

By utilizing vertical wall space, it frees up floor and horizontal wall areas, making it ideal for rooms where space is limited or a minimalist look is desired.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Check if the central heating system is on and functioning correctly. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air. Ensure the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is not turned down or closed.

Leaking from connections

Turn off the heating system and isolate the radiator. Tighten the leaking connection gently. If the leak persists, contact a qualified plumber for inspection and repair.

Uneven heating

If the top is hot and the bottom is cold, trapped air is likely the cause. Bleed the radiator. If the bottom is hot and the top is cold, it may indicate a blockage or an issue with the water flow, requiring professional attention.

Radiator making noise

Gurgling or knocking noises often indicate trapped air; bleed the radiator. Persistent or loud noises may require a plumber to check water flow and pressure.
