FAQs
Does this radiator come with valves?
No, the Typhoon Towel Radiator does not include radiator valves; these must be purchased separately based on your plumbing configuration.
Can this be installed in a kitchen?
Yes, its design is suitable for kitchens as well as bathrooms, providing both warmth and storage for tea towels.
How do I clean the white finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the finish.
Is this radiator compatible with electric-only systems?
This model is designed primarily for standard central heating systems. For electric-only use, you would need a specific heating element and filling.
What is the best way to mount this?
It should be mounted securely to the wall using the provided brackets, ensuring the wall structure can support the weight of the unit when filled with water.
Troubleshooting
Radiator is cold at the top
The radiator likely has air trapped inside. Use a radiator key to bleed the unit until water flows steadily from the bleed valve.
Radiator is cold at the bottom
This often indicates a buildup of sludge in the system. Consider flushing your central heating system or consulting a professional plumber.
Unit is not heating up at all
Check that the radiator valves are open. If they are open but it still doesn't warm, your system may need balancing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, ensure your existing plumbing system has the necessary piping to accommodate the dimensions of the Typhoon radiator. It is essential to use compatible radiator valves and to ensure the unit is mounted on a wall capable of supporting its weight when full of water. We highly recommend hiring a qualified heating engineer to handle the connection to your central heating pipework to prevent leaks and ensure the system is properly balanced. To maintain the radiator, wipe the surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the white coating and lead to corrosion over time.
