FAQs

What is dual fuel functionality?

Dual fuel means the radiator can be heated by your central heating system when your boiler is on, and also by an electric heating element independently, allowing you to use it for warmth even when the central heating is off.

What is the BTU output of this radiator?

The Milano Elizabeth radiator has a heat output of 1194 BTUs (350 Watts).

What is included with the radiator?

The radiator comes with chrome angled valves, wall fixings, wall plugs, a blanking plug, a bleed plug, and a 400W Rotfil heating element.

What is the warranty period?

The towel rail itself has a 10-year guarantee, and the Rotfil heating element has a 2-year guarantee.

Is professional installation required?

While basic installation can be done by a competent DIYer, professional installation is highly recommended for dual fuel setups to ensure safety and proper integration with both heating systems.

What are the dimensions of the radiator?

The dimensions are 930mm in height, 450mm in width, and 230mm in depth.

Can this radiator be used as the primary heat source for a bathroom?

The 1194 BTU output is suitable for most medium-sized bathrooms when connected to central heating. As an electric-only unit, the 400W element may be sufficient for smaller bathrooms or occasional use, but might not be adequate for larger spaces or as a primary heat source in very cold climates.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up (central heating mode)

Check if the central heating system is operational. Ensure radiator valves are fully open. Bleed any trapped air from the radiator using the bleed valve.

Radiator not heating up (electric mode)

Verify the electric heating element is properly screwed in and the power supply is active. Check if the element is switched on (if applicable) and ensure the RCD/fuse is functional.

Leaking from valves or connections

Turn off the water supply to the radiator. Tighten valve connections gently. If leaking persists, contact a qualified plumber for repair or replacement of seals.

Noise from the radiator

Gurgling or banging noises often indicate trapped air. Follow the bleeding procedure. Other noises may require checking pipework or water flow.

  • Includes all necessary components for installation.
  • High heat output effectively warms towels and the room.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This radiator is designed for dual fuel capability. It can be plumbed into your central heating system using the included chrome angled valves and wall fixings. Alternatively, it can be used electrically by installing the Rotfil heating element. For dual fuel installations, it is recommended to have a qualified plumber and electrician consult on the setup to ensure correct integration with both systems. Ensure all included wall fixings and plugs are used for secure mounting.

Compatibility: The radiator is compatible with standard central heating systems. The electric element is designed for UK mains power. It is tested and certified to BS EN 442 standards.

Care: To maintain the finish, clean the radiator regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome and white coating. Ensure the electric element is switched off and cool before cleaning.
