These valves are designed to be compatible with all Elego water radiator ranges, including heated towel rails, column radiators, and panel radiators, thanks to their standard 1/2 BSPT and 15mm fittings.
Basic plumbing knowledge is recommended for installation. If you are not comfortable with plumbing tasks, it is advisable to hire a professional plumber.
The 'H Block' designation refers to the specific design of the valve body that connects to certain types of radiator pipework, often where the pipes enter the radiator from below in an 'H' configuration.
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as it is not detailed in the product description.
These are manual radiator valves and do not have smart capabilities or connections for smart thermostat integration.
The orientation refers to the direction the valve's body and handle are positioned relative to the radiator and the wall. Angled valves are for installations where pipes come out of the wall at an angle to the radiator connection. Straight valves are for when pipes run parallel to the wall. Cornered (or Corner) valves are for installations where pipes come straight out from the wall to meet the radiator connection at a right angle.
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the valves. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the finish.
Ensure all connections are tightened securely. Check that PTFE tape has been applied correctly to the radiator coupler threads. If the leak persists, the valve or seal may be faulty.
Verify that the valve is fully open. Check that the central heating system is operational and that other radiators are heating. Ensure there are no blockages in the radiator or pipework.
The valve may be stiff due to disuse or sediment. Try gently working the handle back and forth. If it remains stiff, consider using a valve cleaner or seeking professional advice.
This could be due to water flow. Ensure the valve is not set to a very fine setting, which can cause whistling. Check system pressure and ensure the system is properly bled.
Compatibility: These valves are compatible with all Elego water radiator ranges, including heated towel rails, column radiators, panel radiators, vertical flat tube radiators, and aluminium radiators. They feature a 1/2 BSPT radiator coupler and 15mm compression inlets. Ensure your existing radiator and pipework match these specifications.
Setup:
Care: Clean the valves with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the matte black finish. Periodically check connections for leaks.
