FAQs
Can this radiator be installed in a bathroom?
While it is a designer radiator, it is primarily intended for living areas. If installed in a bathroom, ensure it is not placed in a direct wet zone to protect the finish.
What is the size of this radiator?

How do I maintain the black finish?

Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top but warm at the bottom
This indicates trapped air. Use a radiator key to bleed the air from the valve located at the top of the unit.
The radiator is not heating up at all
Check that the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is turned to an open position and ensure your central heating system is pressurized correctly.
Leaking around the valve connections
Ensure all joints have been tightened correctly and that PTFE tape was used on the threads during the initial installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure the radiator is correctly integrated into your existing central heating pipework. The unit is designed for horizontal mounting and comes with the required brackets. Ensure that your pipe centers match the 1/2 inch connection standard provided on the radiator.
For ongoing care, keep the exterior clean by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads, as these can damage the specialized black finish. It is recommended to bleed the radiator periodically to remove trapped air, which ensures optimal heating performance throughout the winter months.
