Product Information

Full details

The Typhoon Designer Radiator in grey is an ideal heating solution for homeowners looking to maximize warmth in rooms with limited horizontal wall space. This double-panel vertical radiator offers a high heat output combined with a sophisticated flat-tube aesthetic that complements modern interior design. While its robust build ensures efficient performance, users should note that the substantial weight of the double-panel construction requires secure wall mounting on structurally sound surfaces.

FAQs

Does this radiator include valves?

Valves are typically sold separately. Check your specific installation kit to see if valves are included or if they need to be purchased based on your pipework configuration.

Can this be installed on a stud wall?

Yes, but only if the wall is reinforced with adequate backing timber to support the weight of the double-panel unit. Consult with a builder if you are unsure about wall strength.

What is the primary benefit of a double panel radiator?

A double panel radiator provides a greater surface area for heat exchange, resulting in a higher heat output compared to a single-panel radiator.

Is the grey finish matte or glossy?

The Typhoon grey finish is designed as a modern powder-coated look that typically features a subtle satin or matte-satin sheen.

How often should I bleed the radiator?

You only need to bleed the radiator if you notice it is not heating up fully at the top or if you hear gurgling noises from the system.

Troubleshooting

Radiator is cold at the top

The radiator likely contains air trapped inside. Use a radiator key to bleed the air from the bleed valve until water starts to escape.

Radiator is cold at the bottom

This may indicate a buildup of sludge or debris. A system flush or the help of a professional heating engineer may be required to clear the blockage.

Surface finish appears scratched

Small surface scratches can be touched up with matching enamel paint, but avoid using abrasive cleaners which cause fine scratches over time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High heat output for larger spaces
  • Modern and sleek grey finish
  • Space-saving vertical orientation
  • Sturdy, high-quality build

Cons

  • Requires careful mounting due to heavy construction
  • Requires adequate vertical clearance
  • May require professional installation for plumbing alignment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure that the wall where the radiator is mounted can support the weight of a double-panel unit. Use appropriate fixings for your specific wall type (e.g., masonry vs. stud walls). It is recommended to have a professional plumber handle the pipe connections to ensure a secure, leak-free seal.

Compatibility: This radiator is compatible with standard central heating systems. Before purchase, verify your pipe center measurements to ensure they align with the radiator's inlet and outlet points.

Care: Regularly dust the flat tubes with a soft microfiber cloth. To clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can damage the grey powder-coated finish.
