Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your heating system is fully drained before attempting to replace existing valves. The 15mm compression fitting requires a standard wrench and, optionally, a small amount of PTFE tape on the threads to ensure a watertight seal.
Compatibility: These valves are compatible with standard 15mm copper or plastic pipework. The 1/2 BSPT thread is the industry standard for radiator inlets.
Care: To maintain the matte grey finish, clean the valves with a soft, damp cloth only. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the finish and lead to corrosion over time. Periodically check the compression nuts for any signs of weeping and tighten slightly if necessary.
