FAQs

Does this radiator include valves?

No, valves are not included and must be purchased separately based on your specific piping setup.

Can this be used on an electric-only system?

This radiator is designed for standard central heating systems using hot water.

What is the heat output in BTU?

The Riace Vertical Flat Designer Radiator provides 1628 BTU at Delta T50.

Is the beige finish durable?

Yes, the radiator is finished with a high-quality, scratch-resistant powder coating designed for long-term durability.

What are the exact dimensions?

The radiator measures 160 cm in height, 27.2 cm in width, and 4.7 cm in depth.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

The system likely has trapped air. Use a radiator key to open the bleed valve at the top until water starts to flow.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a buildup of sludge or debris. The system might require a power flush or the thermostatic valve may need adjustment.

Leaking at valve connection

Ensure the valve threads are correctly sealed with PTFE tape and the connections are tightened securely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and versatile beige aesthetic fits most interior styles
  • Space-saving vertical orientation is ideal for small rooms
  • Robust, scratch-resistant powder-coated finish
  • Straightforward installation with included mounting hardware

Cons

  • Radiator valves are not included and must be purchased separately
  • Heat output of 1628 BTU may be insufficient for very large open-plan spaces
  • Single-panel design offers less heat capacity than double-panel alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic plumbing knowledge and the use of standard central heating valves (sold separately). Before mounting, ensure your wall can support the weight of the steel radiator.

Setup Steps:

  1. Use the included template to mark wall fixing points.
  2. Secure the provided brackets firmly into the wall.
  3. Attach the radiator and ensure it is level.
  4. Connect your chosen valves to the inlet and outlet ports.
  5. Flush the system to remove air trapped in the radiator.

Maintenance: To keep the beige finish looking new, wipe down the surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaning agents or steel wool, as these can damage the powder coating.
