The Maesta Traditional Thermostatic Radiator Valves are designed for homeowners seeking to blend classic aesthetics with modern energy efficiency for their heated towel rails or radiators. These valves allow for precise individual room temperature control, helping to reduce overall energy consumption and utility bills. While they offer robust performance and elegant silver styling, users should be aware that they are not bi-directional, requiring careful planning during the installation phase to ensure the thermostatic head and lockshield are placed on the correct sides.

These are designed for standard heated towel rails and radiators that accommodate straight valve configurations.
The valves feature an automatic frost protection setting that triggers water flow to help prevent the system from freezing.
No, these valves are not bi-directional. You must follow the manual to ensure the thermostatic head is on the flow pipe.
Standard plumbing tools like adjustable wrenches and PTFE tape are typically required for installation.
Keep the silver finish looking its best by wiping it regularly with a soft, clean, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals.
Check if the thermostat head is installed on the flow side. If it was installed on the return side, it must be swapped to function correctly.
Ensure the valve pin is not seized by removing the head and gently pressing the pin; it should spring back. If it remains depressed, use a suitable tool to free it.
Ensure all pipe connections are tightened properly. If the leak persists, verify that the olive is seated correctly on the pipe.
Proper installation is vital for these valves as they are not bi-directional. You must ensure that the thermostatic head is positioned on the flow side of the radiator, while the lockshield must be placed on the return side. If reversed, the thermostatic mechanism will not function correctly. Consult your heating system diagram to identify the flow and return pipes before beginning installation. For care, wipe the silver finish periodically with a soft, damp cloth to maintain its shine, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could scratch or dull the surface.
