Pros and Cons
Pros
- Vertical design saves significant wall space
- Comprehensive installation kit included
- Certified to BS EN 442 standards
- Sleek and versatile white finish
Cons
- Single-panel output may be insufficient for very large rooms
- Fixed 580mm pipe centres require precise pipework alignment

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber to ensure the system is correctly balanced. The radiator requires a 580mm pipe centre distance, so confirm your existing pipe layout matches this before purchase. The wall-to-centre dimension is 48mm, which is standard for most residential setups. For maintenance, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid using abrasive chemicals that could damage the white finish. Ensure the system is bled regularly using the provided bleed valve to prevent air locks and maximize heating efficiency.
