FAQs

What is the BTU output of this radiator?

This model provides an efficient heat output of 4863 BTU.

Can I install this radiator myself?

It is strongly recommended to hire a professional heating engineer to ensure safe installation and compliance with plumbing standards.

What are the dimensions of the unit?

The radiator measures 490mm in width and 1800mm in height.

Is this a single or double panel radiator?

This unit features a double panel design for increased thermal efficiency.

How should I clean the black finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers which can damage the paintwork.

Is this radiator compatible with all heating systems?

It is compatible with most standard central heating systems; however, confirm your system pressure and pipe sizing with an installer.

Troubleshooting

Radiator cold at the top

The unit likely contains trapped air. Use a radiator key to bleed the valve until water begins to flow.

Unit not heating up

Verify that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is open and that the central heating system is pressurized correctly.

Surface marks or dust

Clean the surface with a soft, non-abrasive microfiber cloth to prevent micro-scratches on the black finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High heat output of 4863 BTU
  • Sophisticated modern black finish
  • Space-saving vertical orientation
  • Durable double-panel construction

Cons

  • Requires professional installation
  • Large physical size requires significant wall space
  • Black finish may show dust more than white units

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure all pipe connections are pressure-tested and free of leaks. Given the dimensions of 490x1800mm, verify your wall structure can support the weight of a double-panel radiator when filled with water. Compatibility is standard for most central heating systems, but ensure the valve positioning aligns with your existing pipework. For maintenance, keep the black finish looking new by wiping it down regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents, as these can dull or scratch the high-quality surface finish.
