FAQs

What type of wall is required for installation?

This radiator must be installed on a solid wall. If you have plasterboard walls, you will need to purchase optional legs for installation.

Are valves included with the radiator?

The product description states fixings and brackets are included. Radiator valves are typically sold separately and should be purchased according to your system requirements.

What is the BTU output of this radiator?

The BTU (British Thermal Unit) output for this radiator is 7288.

Does the anthracite finish scratch easily?

The radiator is constructed from premium mild steel and is described as scratch and rust resistant. However, care should be taken during installation and cleaning to maintain the finish.

What is the guarantee period?

This DuraTherm radiator comes with a 10-year guarantee against manufacturing defects.

Can this radiator be used with an electric heating system?

No, this radiator is designed for domestic central heating systems (water-based) and is not compatible with electric heating elements.

How do I clean the radiator?

Clean the radiator using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Check that the central heating system is on and functioning correctly. Ensure radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator if air is suspected by carefully turning the bleed valve until water appears, then retighten.

Leaking from valve connections

Ensure the radiator valves are correctly fitted and tightened. If the leak persists, the valve fitting may need re-sealing or replacement by a qualified professional.

Uneven heating (cold spots)

This often indicates trapped air. Bleed the radiator at the top valve. If the problem persists, there may be a blockage or system issue requiring professional inspection.

Radiator making noise (banging or gurgling)

These noises can be caused by air in the system or water hammer. Bleeding the radiator may resolve air-related noise. Persistent noises may require system balancing or investigation by a plumber.
