Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, confirm your radiator supports vertical bottom entry. Always ensure the electrical supply is disconnected before starting. The kit includes a T-piece for integration into existing plumbing, allowing the element to be inserted into one of the radiator legs. For care, wipe the silver exterior with a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish. Because this device uses electrical power in a bathroom environment, compliance with local IEE wiring regulations is mandatory. If you are not comfortable working with electrical circuits or plumbing, it is recommended to hire a certified heating engineer.
