Troubleshooting

Radiator is not heating up

Ensure the central heating system is operational. Check if the radiator valves (sold separately) are open. If the radiator is only partially warm, it may need bleeding to release trapped air. Use the bleed plug and a radiator key (not included) to carefully release air until water appears.

Leaking from connections

Turn off the heating system and allow the radiator to cool. Check that all connections, including valve fittings and wall fixings, are secure. If the leak persists, professional plumbing advice may be required.

Surface finish is damaged

Inspect the damaged area for signs of impact or chemical exposure. Clean the area gently with a damp cloth. Minor scratches may be difficult to repair without professional refinishing, but the powder coating is designed to resist most common household wear.

Important: Valves are not included and must be purchased separately. It is recommended to purchase the radiator and valves before fitting your central heating pipework to ensure accurate measurements.

Care:
