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, it is advisable to use diversion tees in the pipework to ensure optimal performance.

What is included in the packaging for installation?

The radiator comes complete with factory-fitted top grille and side panels, all necessary wall brackets, fixing screws, plugs, and a nickel-plated air vent for installation.

How do I clean and maintain the radiator's finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the white enamel (RAL9016) powder coat finish. Regular checks for leaks and periodic bleeding are recommended for maintenance.

What is the warranty period for this radiator?

The Kartell K-RAD Kompact 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?

The radiator has 4 x 1/2" connections as standard. Valve adaptors are available separately, which provide a 3/4" connector option to the valve without reducing performance.

How is the radiator manufactured for efficiency?

It is manufactured using the latest state-of-the-art technology. The process includes degreasing, zinc phosphating, and a final coat of water-based cathophoratic paint, followed by an epoxy polyester electrostatic powder coating system that is baked to a hard finish, all contributing to maximum efficiency.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up evenly.

Bleed the radiator by carefully opening the air vent screw at the top to release trapped air. If the issue persists, check pipework connections and ensure the system is adequately pressurized. For single-pipe systems, verify that diversion tees are correctly installed.

Radiator is making noise (e.g., banging, ticking).

This is often due to expansion and contraction. Ensure the plastic inserts are correctly seating the radiator on the brackets. Check that the radiator is not in direct contact with walls or other fittings. If the noise is persistent or severe, consult a heating engineer.

Water leak from connections.

Ensure all connections are tight. If leaks persist, the seals may need replacement. This typically requires isolating the radiator from the system, draining it, and replacing the relevant fittings. Consult a professional plumber.

Low heat output from radiator.

Check if the radiator valves are fully open. Ensure there are no blockages in the pipework or radiator fins. If installed on a single-pipe system, confirm that diversion tees are used and functioning correctly. The system's overall pressure and boiler output should also be checked.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the chosen wall location is suitable and can support the weight of the radiator when filled with water.

  3. Connections: Connect the radiator to your existing pipework using the standard 4 x 1/2" connections. For single-pipe systems, install diversion tees as advised to ensure optimal performance.
  4. Finishing: Fit the neat, nickel-plated plug and vent. Ensure a watertight joint.
  5. System Purge: After installation, purge the heating system to remove any air.

Compatibility:

  • Heating Systems: Designed for two-pipe central heating installations. For single-pipe systems, diversion tees are recommended.
  • Connections: Standard 1/2" connections. 3/4" valve adaptors are available separately if required.

Care:

  • Cleaning: To maintain the white enamel finish, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the coating.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check radiator valves and connections for leaks. Bleed the radiator if it becomes cool at the top, indicating trapped air.
