FAQs

Does this set work with 15mm pipes?

This specific kit is designed for 8mm pipework and includes 8mm reducers; it is not natively compatible with 15mm pipework.

Can I replace just the TRV head?

Yes, the Derry Traditional TRV is designed to be demountable, meaning components can be serviced or replaced independently.

Is the lockshield included in the package?

Yes, the set comes complete with both the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) head and the matching lockshield valve.

What is the finish of the valve?

The valve features a clean, durable gloss white finish.

Can I install this on a radiator with 1/2 BSP connections?

Yes, these valves are standard 1/2 BSP fitment, making them compatible with the vast majority of radiators.

Troubleshooting

Radiator fails to heat up

Check if the TRV head is set to the minimum position or if the valve pin is stuck. Gently press the pin to ensure it moves freely.

Radiator is cold even when TRV is open

The system may have air trapped. Bleed the radiator to release trapped air and ensure proper water circulation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic design fits traditional home interiors perfectly
  • Includes essential 8mm reducers for easy setup
  • Energy-efficient thermostatic temperature control
  • Fully demountable for easier maintenance and repairs

Cons

  • Specifically limited to 8mm pipework
  • Requires professional installation if you are not experienced with plumbing
  • Angled design may not suit all pipe configurations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Derry Traditional Angled TRV set requires basic plumbing knowledge and the ability to isolate the heating system. Ensure your system is fully drained before attempting to replace existing valves.

  1. Compatibility: This set is specifically sized for 8mm pipework and uses 1/2 BSP radiator tails. Always check your pipe size before proceeding.
  2. Installation: Attach the TRV head to the flow side and the lockshield to the return side using the included reducers.
  3. Maintenance: Periodically wipe the gloss white finish with a soft, damp cloth to keep it looking pristine. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents that could damage the finish. Because the valves are demountable, you can easily clean or replace the internal thermostatic element in the future without needing to replace the entire valve body.
