FAQs
What pipe sizes are these covers compatible with?
These covers are designed specifically for 15mm diameter pipes, including copper, PB, and PEX types.
Do I need special tools to install them?
Basic tools like a measuring tape and a fine-toothed saw or pipe cutter are recommended if you need to adjust the length of the sleeves. Installation itself is tool-free via the clip-on design.
Can I use these for pipes other than radiators?
While primarily designed for radiator and towel warmer pipework, they can be used on any exposed 15mm pipe where a decorative finish is desired.
How long are the pipe sleeves included?
Each pipe sleeve in the set is 200mm long.
Are the collars adjustable?
The collars are designed to fit snugly against the wall or floor once the sleeve is in place. They are not independently adjustable but provide a neat finish to the installed sleeve.
How do I clean the brushed brass finish?
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.
What materials are the covers made from?
The covers and collars are engineered from durable metal.
Troubleshooting
Pipe cover does not fit snugly.
Ensure the pipe is standard 15mm diameter. Check if the sleeve was cut to the correct length and if the clip-on mechanism is fully engaged. For slight gaps, the collars should help conceal them.
Difficulty cutting the pipe sleeve.
Use a fine-toothed saw or a dedicated pipe cutter for a clean cut. Ensure the sleeve is securely held while cutting.
Finish appears dull or has marks.
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.
Collar does not sit flush.
Ensure the pipe sleeve is correctly positioned. Check the surface where the collar meets (wall/floor) for any obstructions.
