Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up evenly

Ensure the radiator is correctly bled to remove any trapped air. Check that radiator valves are fully open and that the central heating system is functioning correctly. Verify the BTU output is appropriate for the room size.

Leaking from fittings or valves

Carefully tighten any loose connections at the valve or bleed plug. If the leak persists, you may need to drain the system and reapply PTFE tape or sealant to the threads before re-tightening.

Matt black finish is dull or scratched

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For minor scratches, touch-up paint specifically designed for radiators may be used, though a perfect match can be difficult. Avoid harsh cleaning agents.

Radiator appears to be discolored

Ensure the water within your central heating system is clean and treated if necessary. Discoloration can sometimes be a sign of internal corrosion or impurities in the water.
