FAQs

Is this radiator suitable for traditional high-temperature boilers?

While it might function, the Agadon Rome Aluminium Designer Radiator is optimized for low-temperature systems and heat pumps. Performance with high-temperature boilers may be less efficient and could potentially affect the radiator's longevity if not managed carefully.

What kind of heating water additive is recommended?

The manufacturer strongly recommends using a high-quality inhibitor or conditioner specifically designed for modern heating systems, particularly those with aluminium components and low-temperature operation. Consult your installer or a heating specialist for specific product recommendations.

How often should I bleed the radiator?

You should bleed the radiator if you notice cold spots or hear gurgling noises. It's good practice to check and bleed all radiators annually, typically before the heating season begins.

What is the warranty period?

The Agadon Rome Aluminium Designer Radiator comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee, subject to their terms and conditions.

Can I install this radiator myself?

While the radiator is lightweight, plumbing work requires expertise. It is strongly recommended to have the radiator installed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and proper system integration.

Is the white finish durable?

The radiator features a high-quality pre-treatment and powder-coated finish, designed for durability and resistance to wear under normal operating conditions.

What are the dimensions of the radiator?

Specific dimensions (height, width, depth) vary by model. Please refer to the product's technical specifications sheet or the retailer's listing for the exact measurements of the unit you are interested in.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up sufficiently

Check if the heating system is operating at a low temperature compatible with the radiator. Ensure the heating water additive has been added as recommended. Bleed the radiator to remove any trapped air. Verify that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is not set too low or faulty.

Noise coming from the radiator

Gurgling sounds may indicate air in the system; bleed the radiator. Expansion and contraction noises during heating/cooling are normal but persistent or loud banging could indicate pressure issues or water flow problems – consult a professional.

Corrosion or damage to the finish

Inspect for signs of corrosion, especially if a heating water additive was not used or if the system water is old. Clean the surface gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. Contact the manufacturer if significant damage is present.

Leaking connections

Ensure all plumbing connections are tight. If leaks persist, the fitting may be damaged or improperly sealed. A professional plumber should inspect and repair the connections.

  • Fast heating performance
  • Modern and stylish design
  • Lightweight for easier installation
  • Durable and recyclable materials
  • 10-year manufacturer's guarantee

Cons

  • Requires specific compatibility with heat pumps or low-temperature systems for optimal use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure correct plumbing and safety. Ensure all connections are secure and that the radiator is mounted appropriately to its brackets. For optimal performance and to prevent potential internal corrosion, the use of a high-quality heating water additive is strongly recommended during the initial filling of the system.

Compatibility: This radiator is specifically designed for low-temperature heating systems and heat pumps. It may not perform optimally with traditional high-temperature boiler systems. Always confirm compatibility with your existing or planned heating infrastructure.

Care: Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the powder-coated finish. Periodically check system pressure and bleed the radiator if necessary, following standard heating system maintenance procedures. Ensure the recommended heating water additive is maintained in the system.
