FAQs

What is the warranty period for this radiator?

The Stelrad Softline Compact Type K3 Steel Panel Radiator comes with a 15-year warranty from the manufacturer.

Is this radiator suitable for a high-temperature heating system?

While it can function, this radiator is optimized for low-temperature systems. Performance may be reduced with traditional high-temperature boilers compared to its efficiency with modern low-temperature sources.

How do I clean the White (RAL9016) finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher marks, use a mild detergent diluted in water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

What are the dimensions of the radiator?

The radiator measures 600mm in height and 700mm in width.

What is the heat output in Btu?

The heat output is 5705 Btu.

Does it come with wall brackets?

Installation hardware is typically supplied separately or as part of the installation kit. Please check the product packaging or consult your installer.

Can I install this myself?

Installation of radiators involves plumbing and should ideally be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure safety and proper functioning.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating evenly

Bleed the radiator to release trapped air. If the issue persists, check for blockages in the pipework or ensure the lockshield valve is correctly set.

Leaking from connections

Check that all fittings are securely tightened. If the leak persists, the fitting may require replacement or re-sealing by a qualified professional.

Low heat output despite system being on

Verify that the radiator is compatible with your system's operating temperature. Ensure valves are fully open and check for any airlocks or obstructions in the system.

Radiator making noise (e.g., banging, hissing)

Hissing often indicates trapped air, requiring bleeding. Banging or clanking can be due to expansion and contraction, or debris in the system. Consult a heating engineer if persistent.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Space-saving design suitable for smaller rooms or specific wall placements.
Aesthetically pleasing with Softline design elements and a clean white finish.
Optimized performance for efficient heating with low-temperature systems.
Robust construction ensures durability and longevity.
Easy to install due to integrated grilles and side panels.

Cons

Best suited for low-temperature systems, may not achieve full potential with older, high-temperature boilers.
Specific dimensions (600 x 700mm) might not fit all installation requirements.
Requires proper plumbing connections, like any radiator.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer. Ensure all necessary pipework and fittings are compatible with the radiator's connections. The radiator comes with integrated top grilles and side panels for a streamlined fitting process.

Compatibility:

This radiator is specifically designed to be compatible with low-temperature heating systems. It is ideal for use with heat pumps, condensing boilers, and other systems that operate efficiently at lower water temperatures. Ensure your existing or planned heating system can deliver appropriate flow rates and temperatures for optimal performance.

Care:

To maintain the radiator's pristine White (RAL9016) finish, clean it periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the paintwork. For deep cleaning, a mild detergent mixed with water can be used, followed by a rinse with a clean, damp cloth and then dried thoroughly. Ensure the radiator is cool before cleaning.
