FAQs
Does this set fit all radiators?
It is compatible with most radiators and towel rails that utilize a 15mm inlet and 1/2 inch BSP connection.
Can I install this on a vertical radiator?
Yes, provided the pipework configuration supports an angled valve connection.
What material is the valve made from?
The valves are constructed from durable brass with a brushed grey finish.
Does this include the lockshield valve?
Yes, the box includes both the thermostatic radiator valve and the matching lockshield.
How do I maintain the grey finish?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching the surface.
Troubleshooting
Radiator not getting hot
Ensure the TRV head is set to a higher number and check that the internal pin has not seized due to long periods of inactivity.
Constant leaking at the connection
Verify that the olives are properly seated and the nuts are tightened securely; use PTFE tape on the threads if necessary.
Radiator remains hot regardless of setting
Check that the valve has been installed on the flow pipe of the radiator rather than the return pipe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber to ensure the system is properly balanced and leak-free. Before installation, confirm that your radiator pipes approach from the floor or wall at an angle suitable for an angled valve type. To maintain the finish, wipe the valves periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these may scratch or degrade the brushed grey coating. Ensure the thermostatic head is kept clear of curtains or heavy furniture to allow for accurate air temperature sensing.
