FAQs

What does T50 mean in the BTU rating?

T50 is the standard Delta T (temperature difference) used to measure radiator performance, representing the difference between the average radiator temperature and the room temperature.

Is this radiator suitable for a bathroom?

While it features a durable finish, it is designed for general living areas. Ensure it is placed in a well-ventilated space if used in high-humidity environments.

Can I install this on a stud wall?

Due to the weight of the double panel design, ensure you use appropriate fixings and confirm the wall structure can support the load. Consult a professional installer.

Does this radiator include valves?

No, valves are typically sold separately. You will need standard 1/2 inch radiator valves compatible with your pipework.

How often should I bleed the radiator?

You only need to bleed it if you notice cold spots at the top or if the system has recently been drained and refilled.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

Air is trapped inside. Use a radiator key to carefully open the bleed valve until water begins to escape, then close it.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a buildup of sludge or debris. The system may require professional power flushing to restore flow.

Radiator is not getting warm at all

Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is open and that the central heating pump is functioning correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent heat output of 4412 BTU
  • Stylish, minimalist flat tube design
  • Durable white gloss finish
  • Standardized connection size for easier installation

Cons

  • Requires significant wall space due to horizontal design
  • Heavy double panel construction necessitates sturdy mounting surfaces
  • Professional installation recommended for heating system integration

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the central heating system is balanced correctly and that all pipework is sealed to prevent leaks. The unit uses standard 1/2 inch BSP connections, making it compatible with most modern radiator valves. For maintenance, wipe the surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can damage the gloss finish. Regularly check the bleed valve at the top of the unit to ensure no air pockets have formed, which could reduce heating efficiency.
