Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Check if the central heating system is operational. Ensure radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air. Verify that the system pressure is adequate.

Radiator is only partially hot

This often indicates trapped air. Bleed the radiator starting from the top valve until water appears. Ensure the system is balanced if multiple radiators are affected.

Leaking from valve connections

Ensure valve connections are securely tightened. Check that the PTFE tape or sealant used during installation is adequate. If leaks persist, consult a qualified plumber.

Strange noises from the radiator

Gurgling or banging noises usually indicate trapped air. Bleed the radiator. Clanking might be due to expansion and contraction; ensure secure mounting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of the Kartell Boston Designer Radiator should be carried out by a qualified plumber. Ensure all pipework is correctly connected to the tapping centres (c1: 510mm, c2: 50mm). Remember to purchase compatible radiator valves separately and install them according to the valve manufacturer's instructions. The radiator should be flushed thoroughly after installation to remove any debris.

Compatibility: This radiator is compatible with standard central heating systems. It is CE approved and tested to 6 bar pressure. Ensure your system is designed to handle the radiator's BTU output. Radiator valves are not included and must be sourced separately.

Care: To maintain the pristine white finish, clean the radiator periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the paintwork. For tougher marks, a mild detergent can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the radiator is cool before cleaning.
