Product Information

Full details

The Typhoon Axis Horizontal Radiator is designed for homeowners seeking a modern, space-saving heating solution that blends aesthetic appeal with consistent thermal performance. Featuring a sleek, flat-tube horizontal design, it is ideal for rooms with restricted wall height, such as under windows or in compact living areas. While its bold black finish makes a strong visual statement, potential buyers should ensure the single-panel output is sufficient for the specific BTU requirements of their room size before installation.

FAQs

Is this radiator suitable for a bathroom?

While it can be used in a home environment, it is not a dedicated towel radiator. Ensure it is placed away from direct water spray.

Can I paint this radiator a different color?

It is not recommended to paint over the factory-applied finish, as this can affect heat dissipation and void the warranty.

How do I calculate if this is the right size for my room?

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

Does this unit come with valves included?

Usually, radiator valves are sold separately. Check with your retailer to ensure you purchase the correct valves for your pipework.

What is the best way to clean the black finish?

Use a microfiber cloth and a mild soapy solution. Dry immediately to prevent water spots.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

The unit likely has trapped air. Use a radiator key to carefully bleed the air from the bleed valve until water begins to escape.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a buildup of sludge or debris. A power flush by a professional may be required to clear the internal channels.

Noise (gurgling or banging) coming from unit

Check if the system needs balancing or if there is air trapped inside that needs to be bled.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and contemporary aesthetic
  • Space-saving horizontal orientation
  • Versatile black finish fits many decors
  • Durable, long-lasting construction

Cons

  • Single panel design may not suit very large or cold rooms
  • Black finish shows dust more easily than white
  • Limited to horizontal wall mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure all pipe connections are sealed correctly and the system is balanced. The radiator comes with standardized mounting points, but it is essential to check wall integrity before installation, especially on stud walls, as these units require secure fixing.

Compatibility: This model is compatible with most standard domestic central heating systems. Ensure your plumbing configuration matches the side-entry connection points provided.

Care: To keep the black finish looking new, wipe down the exterior periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the specialized finish. Bleed the radiator at least once a year—typically at the start of the heating season—to ensure maximum efficiency.
