FAQs

What is the warranty period for the Stelrad Softline Silhouette Radiator?

The Stelrad Softline Silhouette Radiator comes with a 15-year manufacturer's warranty.

Is this radiator suitable for all room sizes?

The 600 x 600mm K1 model is best suited for medium-sized rooms. For larger or smaller rooms, different sizes or types of radiators may be required to ensure adequate heating.

Can I use this radiator with a combi boiler?

Yes, it is compatible with standard wet central heating systems, including those powered by combi boilers. It is also particularly effective with low-temperature systems.

How do I clean the radiator?

Clean the radiator using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the white finish.

What does 'K1' mean for this radiator type?

The 'K1' designation indicates a single panel radiator with one layer of convector fins, providing a balance of heat output and depth.

Does the radiator come with valves?

The product description does not specify if valves are included. Typically, radiator valves are purchased separately or as part of a heating system installation.

Is this radiator suitable for a bathroom?

While the white finish is aesthetically pleasing, it's best to ensure the radiator is installed in a suitable environment. For bathrooms, consider radiators with higher corrosion resistance or specific bathroom designs.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top and warm at the bottom.

This indicates trapped air. Use the bleed valve to release the air until water starts to flow out, then retighten the valve.

Radiator is cold all over.

Check if the central heating system is on and if the thermostat is set correctly. Ensure the radiator valve is fully open. If the problem persists, check the system pressure and consult a heating engineer.

Radiator is making dripping or gurgling noises.

This usually signifies trapped air or a need for system balancing. Bleed the radiator. If the noise continues, contact a heating professional.

Radiator leaks from valve connections.

Ensure the valve connections are securely tightened. If leaking persists, the valve may need servicing or replacement by a qualified engineer.
