Full details

Offering a distinctive metallic finish, this unit is ideal for bedrooms, studies, or hallways up to 4.8 m². While it serves as a stunning design centerpiece, it is important to note that its heat output is best suited for supplemental heating in smaller rooms rather than serving as the primary source for large, open-plan living areas.

Troubleshooting

Radiator remains cold despite heating being on

Use the included bleed valve to release any trapped air inside the unit.

Check that the thermostat valves are open and that the system is properly balanced by a professional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating professional to ensure compatibility with your existing central heating system. Ensure that your pipework aligns with the 870 mm pipe centres before mounting.
