FAQs
What is the heat output of this radiator?
This radiator provides a heat output of 400W, equivalent to 1363 BTU.
Does it come with valves?
No, valves are not included. The unit is compatible with any standard ½ inch BSP radiator valve.
Is this radiator suitable for a bathroom?
While it is durable, it is not explicitly rated for high-moisture environments. Ensure the room has adequate ventilation if installed in a bathroom.
How long is the warranty?

Can I paint this radiator?
Painting the radiator may void your warranty and affect the heat emission efficiency; it is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top
Air has likely become trapped; use the provided bleed valve to release excess air until water appears.
Radiator is cold at the bottom
There may be a buildup of sludge or debris; this usually requires the system to be flushed by a professional.
Leaking at the valve connection
Ensure the valve nut is tightened correctly and check that sufficient PTFE tape is applied to the thread.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Striking and unique Caribbean Sea aesthetic
- Compact dimensions fit small wall spaces
- Comprehensive installation kit included
- BS EN 442 certified for safety and performance
- Backed by a reliable 5-year warranty
Cons
- Lower heat output limits it to smaller rooms

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires standard central heating pipework, as the unit uses standard ½ inch BSP valve connections. We recommend professional plumbing assistance for mounting and connecting to ensure a leak-free system.
Installation Steps
- Measure your wall space to ensure clearance for both the unit and the valves.
- Mark drill holes using the provided wall fixings and plugs.
- Secure the radiator mounting brackets to the wall.
- Attach the valves and connect the flow and return pipes.
- Install the bleed valve and blanking plug in the appropriate ports.
- Fill the system and bleed the air from the radiator until water flows steadily.
Care Instructions
To maintain the Caribbean Sea finish, clean only with a soft, damp cloth and mild soapy water. Never use abrasive sponges, scouring pads, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the premium hand-finish and lead to corrosion.
