Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up fully

Check if the central heating system is on and functioning correctly. Ensure the radiator's valves are fully open. Air trapped in the system can prevent heating; use the bleed plug to release any trapped air until water appears.

Leaking from valve or bleed plug

Ensure the valve is properly tightened. For bleed plug leaks, try tightening it gently. If leaking persists, contact a professional plumber for inspection and repair.

Uneven heating across the radiator

This can indicate air trapped in the radiator. Bleed the radiator following the instructions above. If the issue continues, there might be a blockage or an imbalance in the heating system that requires professional assessment.

All necessary wall fixings, brackets, a blanking plug, and a bleed plug are included. It is strongly recommended to have this radiator installed by a qualified professional plumber to ensure correct and safe operation.
