FAQs

What type of heating system is this radiator designed for?

The Kartell K-RAD Kompact radiator is designed for two-pipe heating systems. For single-pipe applications, it is recommended to use diversion tees.

What is included with the radiator?

Each radiator comes complete with factory-fitted top grille and side panels, wall brackets, a fixing kit with plugs and screws, and a neat nickel-plated plug and vent.

What is the finish of the radiator?

The radiator has a final coating of white enamel (RAL9016), achieved through a process of degreasing, zinc phosphating, water-based cathophoratic paint, and an epoxy polyester electrostatic powder coating.

What is the warranty period?

The radiator is covered by the Kartell "No Quibble Guarantee" against any manufacturing faults for 10 years.

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

Yes, 3/4" valve adaptors are available, which provide a 3/4" connector option to the valve without reducing performance.

How do I clean the radiator?

Clean the radiator with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the white enamel finish.

What causes noise from the radiator?

The most common cause of noise is the expansion and contraction of the metal as it heats and cools. Ensure the radiator is properly seated on its brackets, which are designed with plastic inserts to minimize this.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Ensure the central heating system is on and the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) or manual valve is open. For single-pipe systems, check if diversion tees are installed correctly. Bleed the radiator if air is suspected.

Radiator is making noise

Expansion and contraction noises are normal as the radiator heats and cools. Ensure the radiator is securely seated on the brackets; plastic inserts help minimize this. If noise is excessive, consult a professional.

Visible leaks from connections

Check that the nickel-plated plug and vent are fully tightened. If leaks persist, the sealing tape or compound used during installation may need to be replaced. Contact a plumber if the issue cannot be resolved.

Uneven heating

If installed on a single-pipe system, ensure diversion tees are correctly fitted. For any system, check that the thermostatic radiator valve is functioning correctly and that there are no blockages in the pipework.
