FAQs

Does this radiator include valves?

Valves are generally sold separately. Ensure you purchase compatible valves that match your pipework.

Can I install this on a stud wall?

Due to the weight of a double-panel radiator, it is recommended to mount it on a solid wall or use appropriate reinforcements in stud walls.

Is the grey finish matte or gloss?

The Typhoon series typically features a durable powder-coated finish; check the specific product batch for exact sheen levels.

How do I calculate the heat requirement?

You should use a standard BTU calculator based on your room's dimensions, window type, and insulation levels.

Can this be used on an electric-only system?

This model is designed for standard central heating systems. For electric use, you would need a compatible heating element kit.

Troubleshooting

The radiator is cold at the top.

The radiator likely has trapped air. Use a radiator key to bleed the valve at the top until water starts to flow.

The radiator is warm but the room remains cold.

Check if the radiator is sized correctly for the room's volume and ensure the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is set to the desired level.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maximizes floor space with a vertical footprint
  • High heat output from the double panel design
  • Sleek, modern design enhances room aesthetics
  • Neutral grey finish matches diverse interior decor

Cons

  • Height requirements may limit placement options
  • Requires professional plumbing for proper pipe alignment
  • Heavier than standard single-panel radiators

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Typhoon radiator should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the pipework aligns with the vertical input points. Before mounting, verify that the wall structure can support the weight of a double-panel unit. Compatibility with existing central heating systems is generally high, but ensure your system's pressure and the radiator's BTU requirements match your room size. To care for the radiator, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners on the finish. A soft, damp cloth is sufficient to remove dust and maintain the appearance of the grey coating.
