FAQs

What type of heating system is this radiator best suited for?

This radiator is designed for two-pipe central heating systems. For single-pipe systems, using diversion tees is recommended to achieve optimal performance.

What is included with the radiator?

The radiator comes complete with all necessary installation components, including robust wall brackets, a fixing kit (plugs, screws), and a factory-fitted top grille and side panels. A nickel-plated plug and vent are also included.

What is the warranty period for this radiator?

The radiator is covered by a 10-year Kartell 'No Quibble Guarantee' against manufacturing faults.

How do I clean the white enamel finish?

Clean the radiator with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a mild soap solution, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I connect this radiator to a 3/4" pipe?

Yes, 1/2" valve adaptors are available that provide a 3/4" connector option without reducing performance.

What does 'Type 21' mean for this radiator?

Type 21 refers to a double panel radiator plus a convector. This design enhances heat output and efficiency compared to single-panel radiators.

Is it difficult to install?

The radiator includes all necessary fixings and robust brackets designed for easy mounting. However, professional plumbing installation is recommended to ensure correct connection to your heating system.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up fully

Ensure the system is a two-pipe setup or that diversion tees are correctly installed in a single-pipe system. Check that radiator valves are fully open and that the central heating system is functioning correctly. Bleed air from the radiator using the vent plug if necessary.

Radiator is making noise

Plastic inserts in the brackets are designed to minimize noise from expansion and contraction. Ensure the radiator is correctly seated on the brackets. If noise persists, consult a qualified installer.

Leak detected at connection point

Turn off the heating system and allow the radiator to cool. Check the tightness of the relevant connection. If the leak persists, the fitting may need to be resealed by a qualified professional.

White finish appears dull or stained

Clean the radiator with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Kartell K-Rad Kollection comes with all necessary installation components, including robust wall brackets and a fixing kit with screws and plugs. Ensure the mounting location is suitable and the wall is capable of supporting the radiator's weight when full of water. Follow the included instructions for securely attaching the brackets and then mounting the radiator. The radiator features 4 x 1/2" standard connections. The nickel-plated plug and vent are pre-fitted to ensure a watertight joint during installation; the vent is used to bleed air from the system.

Compatibility: This radiator is designed for two-pipe central heating systems. For single-pipe systems, the use of diversion tees is recommended for optimal performance. Optional 1/2" to 3/4" valve adaptors are available if needed, without impacting performance.

Care: The radiator is finished with a durable white enamel powder coat (RAL9016). To maintain its finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the coating. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
