FAQs

What is the heat output of this radiator?

Is the finish on this radiator consistent?

The bare metal lacquer finish celebrates the raw character of the material, meaning there may be natural variations in color and texture across the metal surface.

How many sections does this model have?

Troubleshooting

Radiator remains cold at the top

The unit likely has trapped air. Use a radiator bleed key to release the air until water begins to trickle out.

Radiator is cold despite heating being on

Ensure the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is set to the desired level or check if the lockshield valve is fully open.

Visible signs of surface wear

Check the area for excessive humidity or direct moisture contact; if the lacquer is compromised, consult a specialist to reseal the metal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking industrial aesthetic with a unique bare metal look
  • High heat output suitable for large living areas
  • Durable lacquer coating prevents rust while showcasing metal character
  • Classic multi-column construction for reliable performance
  • Long 5-year warranty protection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure compatibility with your existing central heating system. Given its size, the wall must be capable of supporting the dead weight of the unit when filled with water. Ensure your pipework is compatible with standard radiator valve connections. For maintenance, clean the radiator with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Do not use abrasive chemicals or acidic cleaners, as these can strip the protective lacquer and lead to surface discoloration. Check valve connections annually for signs of moisture to prevent corrosion.
