FAQs
Will this cover trap too much heat?
No, the vertical slat design is specifically engineered to allow heat to flow freely into the room while protecting surfaces.
Can I paint this cover?
While the finish is durable, you can modify it, but ensure you use heat-resistant paint suitable for radiator covers.
Does it come with wall mounting hardware?
Yes, standard assembly typically includes necessary hardware to ensure the unit is stable against the wall.
What are the exact internal dimensions?
The external dimensions are 112 x 19 x 81.5 cm; always ensure your radiator is at least 2-3 cm smaller in each dimension for proper clearance.
Is it safe for pets?
Yes, it prevents pets from lying directly against hot radiators, which helps prevent accidental burns.
How do I clean the cover?
Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to keep the brown finish looking fresh.
Troubleshooting
Cover feels warm to the touch
Ensure there is adequate ventilation space between the radiator and the inner wall of the cover to allow heat to dissipate through the slats.
Unit wobbles on floor
Check that the floor is level and ensure all assembly screws are tightened correctly. Use shims if necessary to level the base.
Difficulty with assembly
Verify that all panels are aligned correctly according to the manual and do not overtighten screws, which could strip the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your radiator is smaller than the internal dimensions of the cover (112 x 19 x 81.5 cm). Leave a small clearance around the radiator to prevent the cover from getting too hot to the touch. Assembly generally requires standard tools and should be performed on a flat surface to ensure the cover sits flush against the wall. For care, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive water, as these may damage the finish or cause the material to warp over time. Periodically check that all connections remain tight, especially after the first few weeks of heating cycles.
