FAQs
Does this set include both valves needed for a radiator?
Yes, this set includes one thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) for control and one lockshield valve for balancing the system.
Can this be used on any radiator?
It is designed for standard and towel radiators with 15mm pipework; however, always verify your radiator orientation requires a corner valve type.
What is the size of the inlet and outlet?
The set features a 15mm inlet and a 1/2 inch BSP outlet.
Does the silver finish require special maintenance?
No, simply clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could scratch or dull the surface.
Is this a manual or thermostatic valve?
It is a thermostatic valve, meaning it automatically adjusts the flow of water to maintain a set temperature.
Troubleshooting
Radiator remains cold despite valve being open
The internal pin may be stuck due to lack of use. Remove the head and gently tap the pin to ensure it moves freely.
Leaking at the connection point
Ensure the connection is tightened securely and verify that enough PTFE tape was applied to the threads.
Valve feels stiff to turn
Clean any debris or dust from around the dial and ensure the valve is not restricted by surrounding wall furniture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your heating system is fully drained before beginning work. The valve features a 15mm inlet designed for standard copper or plastic heating pipes. When tightening the connections, use appropriate pipe sealant or PTFE tape to ensure a leak-free seal. To maintain the finish, simply wipe the valve with a soft, damp cloth; avoid using abrasive chemicals or scouring pads, as these can damage the silver coating. Regularly check the valve movement during the off-season to ensure the internal pin remains free and responsive.
