FAQs

Does this set include both the valve and the lockshield?

Yes, the Stirling Bold kit includes both the thermostatic valve and the corresponding lockshield valve.

Is this compatible with 15mm pipework?

No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 8mm pipework.

What is a corner radiator valve?

A corner valve is designed so that the valve head is positioned horizontally, parallel to the wall, which is ideal for space-saving installations.

Can I install this on any radiator?

It is compatible with any radiator using a standard 1/2 inch BSP connection, provided your pipework size matches.

What is the benefit of a thermostatic valve over a manual one?

A thermostatic valve allows you to set a target room temperature and adjusts flow automatically to maintain that level, which is more energy-efficient.

Troubleshooting

Radiator failing to heat up

Check that the thermostatic head is set to a high enough temperature number and ensure the internal pin is not stuck.

Leakage around the connection

Ensure the union nuts are tightened correctly and verify that sufficient sealing tape was used during initial installation.

Valve feels stuck or difficult to turn

Gently rotate the valve head back and forth through its full range of settings to loosen internal sediment or deposits.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compact corner design saves space
  • Stylish grey finish adds a premium look

Cons

  • Specific to 8mm pipework systems
  • Requires professional installation for best results
  • Limited to corner-style pipe configurations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, confirm your central heating system uses 8mm pipework, as these valves are manufactured specifically for this diameter. The valve connects to your radiator via a standard 1/2-inch BSP thread. It is recommended to use PTFE tape or a suitable plumbing sealant on threads to ensure a leak-free connection. For care, wipe the valves periodically with a soft, damp cloth to maintain the grey finish. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the coating. If the valve feels stiff after long periods of inactivity, gently turning the head through its full range of motion can often free up the internal mechanism.
