What standards does this radiator meet?

Can I install this on any wall type?

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

Air is trapped inside the system. Use the provided bleed valve to release the air until water appears.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This often indicates a sludge buildup. You may need to flush the heating system.

Leaking at connection points

Ensure valves are tightened correctly and check if the thread sealant or O-rings require replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek, minimalist aesthetic ideal for modern homes
  • Vertical orientation maximizes limited wall space
  • Includes all necessary mounting hardware
  • Backed by a 5-year warranty
  • Tested to strict BS EN 442 safety standards

Cons

  • Single panel design may not suit very large or poorly insulated rooms
  • Vertical orientation requires specific pipework configuration
  • Requires professional installation for central heating integration

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires standard integration into a closed-loop central heating system. Ensure your existing pipework aligns with the vertical connection points of the radiator.

  1. Preparation: Use a level to ensure the brackets are perfectly vertical before drilling.
  2. Mounting: Use the provided wall fixings to secure the brackets firmly to the wall substrate.
  3. Connection: Connect the radiator valves to your central heating flow and return pipes, using proper thread sealing tape.
  4. Commissioning: Once installed, open the bleed valve to ensure all trapped air is released as the system fills.

For ongoing care, wipe the Dune Grey finish with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the finish. Periodically check that all connections remain tight and free of corrosion.
