FAQs

What material is the radiator cover made from?

The radiator cover is made from high-quality, sturdy MDF wood with a white satin finish.

Does the cover come assembled?

No, the radiator cover is supplied flat-packed and requires assembly. Instructions and fittings are included.

Can I use this cover with a heated towel rail?

This cover is designed for standard horizontal radiators. It is unlikely to be compatible with heated towel rails or other non-standard heating units.

Will this cover reduce the heat output from my radiator?

Like most radiator covers, it may slightly reduce heat output as it creates a barrier. However, the design aims to help circulate heat into the room.

What are the dimensions of the large white radiator cover?

The internal dimensions are 141 cm (Width) x 80 cm (Height) x 16 cm (Depth). The external dimensions are 151.5 cm (Width) x 82 cm (Height) x 19 cm (Depth).

How do I clean the radiator cover?

Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Can I paint the radiator cover?

The cover comes with a white satin finish. While MDF can be painted, it is recommended to check specific paint suitability for this type of finish if you wish to customize its color.

Troubleshooting

Parts missing during assembly

Carefully check the packaging again. If parts are still missing, refer to the contact information in the product manual to request replacements.

Cover does not fit the radiator

Double-check the internal and external dimensions of the cover against your radiator measurements. Ensure no pipework or valves are obstructing the fit. If the discrepancy is significant, the cover may not be compatible.

Wobbly during or after assembly

Ensure all screws and fittings are securely tightened. If the cover is not fastened to the wall, consider using the provided wall fittings for added stability.

White finish is smudged or dirty

Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and dry immediately with a clean cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
