FAQs

What type of wall is required for installation?

The radiator must be installed on a solid wall. For plasterboard walls, a separate radiator leg set is required.

Does it come with fixings and brackets?

Yes, the radiator includes the necessary fixings and brackets for installation.

What is the warranty period for this radiator?

This Park Lane radiator comes with a 10-year guarantee.

Is a radiator inhibitor necessary?

Yes, using an inhibitor is strongly recommended when installing any new radiator to protect the heating system and the radiator itself from corrosion.

How do I calculate if this radiator is suitable for my room?

You need to calculate the room's heating requirements in BTUs and compare it to the radiator's output (2996 BTU). Factors like room size, insulation, window type, and location influence the required BTU.

Can I paint this radiator?

While technically possible with compatible paint, painting over the manufacturer's finish may void the guarantee and could affect heat output. It is not generally recommended unless done by a professional with appropriate materials.

What are the dimensions of the radiator?

The dimensions are 1600mm in height and 380mm in width.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold or not heating sufficiently

Check if the radiator valve is fully open. If the top is cold and the bottom is warm, it may need bleeding to release trapped air. Ensure the boiler is functioning correctly and the system is adequately pressurized. Verify that the radiator's BTU output is sufficient for the room size.

Leaking from connections or valves

Turn off the water supply to the radiator if possible. Tighten connections carefully. If the leak persists, you may need to replace the valve or re-seal the connection. Professional assistance might be required.

Radiator makes gurgling or banging noises

This often indicates trapped air within the system. Bleed the radiator. If the noise continues, there might be an issue with water flow or system balance that requires professional assessment.

Black finish is scratched or damaged

Minor scratches may be difficult to repair without affecting the finish. For significant damage, professional repainting or replacement might be necessary. Use only soft cloths for cleaning to prevent further scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation:

This radiator *must* be installed on a solid wall. If you intend to install it on plasterboard walls, you will need to purchase a radiator leg set separately. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct and safe fitting.

Compatibility:

  • This radiator is designed to be plumbed into a standard central heating system.
  • An inhibitor is recommended when installing any new radiator to protect the system and the radiator itself.
  • Ensure your existing central heating system can support the heat output (BTU) required for the room.

Care:

  • Clean the radiator regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the black finish.
  • Periodically check all connections for leaks, especially after initial installation and during the first few heating cycles.
  • Bleed the radiator if it feels cold at the top, indicating trapped air.
