Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top and warm at the bottom
This indicates trapped air. Use the provided bleed plug and a radiator key to carefully release the air until water begins to flow, then retighten the plug.
Radiator is not heating up sufficiently
Check if radiator valves are fully open. Ensure the central heating system is functioning correctly and the boiler is set to an appropriate temperature. Verify the BTU output is sufficient for the room size.
Leaking from valve connections
Ensure valve connections are securely tightened. If the leak persists, the thread tape or sealant may need to be replaced by a professional installer.
Damage to the powder-coated finish
Contact the manufacturer or retailer for advice on repair kits or procedures. Avoid using abrasive cleaners in the future.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: This radiator requires professional plumbing installation. Ensure your central heating system is compatible and has adequate pressure. The radiator comes with blanking and bleed plugs and wall fixings. Radiator valves (thermostatic or manual) are not included and must be sourced separately to connect to your pipework. It is recommended to flush the system before installation to prevent debris from entering the new radiator.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard central heating systems (e.g., combination boilers, system boilers, conventional boilers). Ensure your system can support the required water volume and pressure. Check the dimensions (1800mm x 290mm x 100mm) to confirm fitment.
Care: Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the powder-coated finish. Periodically check fixings for tightness and bleed the radiator if you notice cold spots at the top, indicating trapped air.
