FAQs

How much heat does this foil actually reflect?

The foil is designed to reflect up to 90% of the heat generated by your radiator back into the room, preventing it from being lost through the wall.

How do I know if I need radiator foil?

Radiator foil is most beneficial for radiators located on external walls or in rooms with poor wall insulation, as these are areas where significant heat loss occurs.

How many radiators can one roll cover?

One roll, measuring 5 metres x 60cm (covering 3m²), is typically enough to cover approximately five radiators that are 1 metre wide.

Can I cut the foil to fit smaller radiators?

Yes, the foil can be easily cut to any size required using regular kitchen scissors to fit smaller or differently sized radiators.

How is the foil attached to the wall?

The foil is attached using the super-strength double-sided sticky pads included with the product. Small slits can be made for wall brackets if necessary.

Is this product reusable?

Yes, the radiator foil is built to last and can be reused year after year. Simply remove it at the end of winter, fold it for storage, and reinstall using fresh sticky pads the following season.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with an extended 3-year warranty for peace of mind.

What are the dimensions of the roll?

The roll measures 5 metres in length and 60cm in width.

Troubleshooting

Foil not sticking securely

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust before applying the sticky pads. Use the provided super-strength double-sided sticky pads.

Foil is difficult to cut

Use sharp kitchen scissors for a clean cut. For thicker sections, a craft knife might be more effective, but exercise caution.

Reduced radiator output after installation

Ensure the foil is not blocking the air vents or flow of the radiator. The foil should be positioned flat against the wall behind the radiator, not obstructing the unit itself.

Foil appears to be damaged

Inspect the foil for tears or punctures. If damaged, it may not be as effective. Contact customer support if the damage seems to be a manufacturing defect.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Measure the height and width of the space behind your radiator.
  2. Cut the radiator foil to the required dimensions using standard kitchen scissors.
  3. Make small slits in the foil where necessary to accommodate radiator wall brackets.
  4. Clean the wall surface behind the radiator to ensure good adhesion.
  5. Attach the super-strength double-sided sticky pads to the back of the foil or directly to the wall.
  6. Carefully slide the foil into place behind the radiator, ensuring it is flat and securely attached.

Compatibility:

This radiator foil is generally compatible with most standard wall-mounted radiators. It is designed to be installed between the radiator and the wall. Ensure there is adequate space behind the radiator for the 4mm thick foil. It is not suitable for freestanding radiators or those with complex back designs that prevent a flat installation.

Care:

The foil is designed for minimal care. At the end of the heating season, it can be carefully removed, folded, and stored. To re-install in the following season, use fresh sticky pads. Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth if any dust accumulates, but avoid harsh cleaning agents.
