FAQs

How does the CUQOO Radiator Reflector Foil work?

The foil reflects radiant heat back into the room, reducing the amount of heat that escapes through the wall behind the radiator, thereby improving the efficiency of your heating system.

Is the foil difficult to install?

No, installation is designed to be simple. You only need to measure, cut, and place the foil behind your radiator.

Can I use the foil with any type of radiator?

The foil is compatible with most radiator types, but its performance may vary depending on the radiator's design and placement.

Does the foil require any special maintenance?

Minimal maintenance is needed. Simply ensure it's clean and free from damage. If the foil gets dusty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

How long will the foil last?

The lifespan of the foil depends on its use environment. With proper care and protection, it can last for several years.

Can the foil be used in the summer?

Yes, although primarily designed for winter use, the foil can also help minimize heat gain during summer months by reflecting sunlight away from the wall.

What are the dimensions of the foil roll?

The roll is 5 meters in length and 60cm in width, with a thickness of 3.6mm.

Is the foil safe to use?

Yes, the foil is safe to use and does not contain any hazardous materials. Always follow installation instructions for proper and safe usage.

Troubleshooting

The foil does not seem to be making a difference.

Ensure the foil is correctly positioned behind the radiator, covering the entire back surface. Check for any gaps or damage. Consider the type of wall insulation as this can affect performance. Make sure to use enough foil to cover the entire back side of the radiator.

Foil is too large/small for the radiator.

Carefully trim the foil to the correct size, ensuring it does not extend beyond the radiator's edges or leave significant gaps.

Foil is damaged during installation.

If the foil is torn, use a new section of foil. Small tears might not affect performance significantly, but larger tears will compromise its effectiveness.
