Product Information

Full details

The Typhoon Double Panel Vertical Radiator by UK Radiators is an ideal heating solution for homeowners looking to combine contemporary aesthetics with efficient thermal performance in space-constrained areas. Featuring a sleek flat-tube design and a crisp white finish, this radiator offers a robust 2436 BTU heat output suitable for medium-sized living spaces. While its vertical orientation is excellent for saving wall space, users should ensure their existing pipework configuration supports bottom-entry connections before installation.

FAQs

Can I install this radiator horizontally?

No, the Typhoon vertical range is specifically designed for vertical mounting to ensure water flow and thermal efficiency.

Is this radiator compatible with electric heating elements?

This model is designed for standard wet central heating systems using 1/2 inch BSP connections.

What is the heat output of this radiator?

This specific model provides a heat output of 2436 BTUs.

Does the radiator come with wall brackets?

Yes, it is typically supplied with the necessary wall-mounting hardware for a secure installation.

How often should I bleed the radiator?

Bleeding is only necessary if you notice cold spots at the top of the unit, which usually happens after the system has been drained or refilled.

Troubleshooting

Radiator feels cold at the top

The radiator likely has trapped air; use a radiator key to bleed the air out through the bleed valve at the top.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a sludge buildup; the system may require a power flush or a chemical inhibitor treatment.

No heat despite the system being on

Check that the thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) are correctly set and not seized.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving vertical design ideal for narrow walls
  • High thermal output of 2436 BTUs for efficient heating
  • Stylish flat-tube aesthetic enhances modern decor
  • Easy installation using standard BSP fittings

Cons

  • Vertical design may require pipework adjustment if replacing a standard horizontal unit
  • Heavy double-panel construction requires secure wall mounting
  • White finish requires regular dusting to maintain visual appeal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure compliance with building regulations and to guarantee the integrity of the 1/2 inch BSP connections. The unit is designed for standard closed-loop central heating systems. To maintain the radiator, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution to clean the exterior; avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the powder coat finish. Periodically check for any air locks in the system and bleed the radiator to maintain maximum heating efficiency.
