Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does T50 mean regarding heat output?

T50 is the standard temperature delta (50 degrees Celsius) used to measure the efficiency of radiators in European heating systems.

Is the raw metal finish prone to rusting?

The finish is designed for indoor use. Keep it away from high-moisture environments like bathrooms to prevent oxidation.

Can I use this with any central heating system?

Yes, it is designed for standard wet central heating systems; however, consult a professional plumber for specific pressure compatibility.

Are wall brackets included?

Typically, radiators are supplied with mounting hardware, but you should verify the contents of your specific package upon delivery.

Does the unique finish look different than the photo?

Yes, because the finish is raw and authentic, variations in shading and texture are part of the product's design.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

The radiator likely contains trapped air and requires bleeding using a radiator key to release the air pressure.

Radiator is not getting warm at all

Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is open and not seized, or check if the central heating pump is functioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking industrial design statement

  • Finish varies per unit due to raw material nature
  • Requires professional installation for plumbing
  • Weight may require specific wall reinforcement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Alpha 2 Column Radiator should be carried out by a qualified heating engineer to ensure all plumbing connections are secure and leak-free. Before installation, confirm that your floor and wall structure can support the weight of a cast-style column radiator. For compatibility, ensure your existing heating system can accommodate the specific pipe center measurements of your chosen model. Regarding care, the raw metal finish requires a gentle touch; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that might strip the metal's natural character. Dust the unit regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent buildup in the columns, and check valves periodically to ensure smooth operation of the heat flow.
