Does this radiator come with a warranty?

Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top
Air is trapped inside; use the included bleed valve to release the trapped air until water flows steadily.
Radiator is not heating up at all
Check that both the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) and lockshield valve are fully open.
Leaking around the valve connection
Ensure the 1/2 inch BSP fitting is tightened correctly and that the thread seal tape (PTFE) is properly applied.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Distinctive vibrant orange finish for unique interior styling
- Vertical orientation maximizes limited floor space
- Constructed from durable, heat-conductive mild steel
- Generous 5-year warranty provides long-term peace of mind
- Includes all necessary mounting hardware and valves
Cons
- Requires specific 510mm pipe centers for installation
- Orange finish may require careful color matching with existing room decor
- Single-panel design may not meet heating requirements for very large rooms
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure compliance with local plumbing standards. The radiator requires a 1/2 inch BSP connection and pipe centers of exactly 510mm; verify your existing pipework aligns before proceeding.
Care Instructions:
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals on the orange finish; a soft, damp cloth with mild soap is sufficient.
- Periodically check the bleed valve for any signs of air lock.
- Regularly dust the flat panel surfaces to ensure maximum heat emissivity and prevent long-term surface degradation.
