FAQs

Does this radiator come with the feet included?

Yes, this specific model includes the necessary feet for a floor-mounted installation.

Can I install this on a stud wall?

This model is designed to be floor-mounted using the included feet, which reduces the load on the wall. However, we recommend still using wall stays for added stability.

What is the heat output of this radiator?

This radiator has a heat output of 1713 BTUs (T50).

Is the antique brass finish durable?

The finish is high quality and designed for longevity, but it should be cleaned gently with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the surface.

Is this suitable for a bathroom?

While it can be used in a bathroom, ensure it is placed in a zone that meets building regulations for electrical and moisture safety.

What are the dimensions of this unit?

The radiator measures 500mm in height and 592mm in width.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

Trapped air is preventing water circulation; use a radiator bleed key to release the air until water appears.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This often indicates a buildup of sludge or debris; consult a professional to power flush the system.

Radiator is not heating up at all

Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is turned to an open setting and ensure the system pump is functioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Compact footprint ideal for smaller rooms
Aesthetically pleasing antique brass finish
Sturdy floor-mounted installation with included feet
Efficient heat output for its size
Classic cast-iron inspired traditional design

Cons

Heat output may be insufficient for very large open-plan rooms
Requires matching antique brass accessories for a uniform look
Floor-mounted design takes up more floor space than wall-hung alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber to ensure the radiator is correctly balanced within your existing central heating system.

Placement: Ensure the floor surface is level before attaching the provided radiator feet to guarantee stability.
Compatibility: Verify that your existing pipework connects to standard radiator valves; the unit is designed for standard 1/2-inch BSP connections.
Care: To maintain the antique brass finish, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners or scouring pads. Instead, clean the exterior regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with mild soapy water. Wipe dry immediately to prevent water spots or oxidation. Periodically check the radiator for air pockets and bleed the system if you notice cold spots at the top of the columns.
