Assembly Instructions for Designer Radiators

Please read the instructions carefully before starting assembly.

Important Safety Information

The radiator must be installed by a qualified plumber or another competent specialist.
Note that the dimensions and panel/pipe layout of the radiator may differ from the respective illustrations.
Do not dispose of the packaging until you have secured small parts such as wall brackets and mounting accessories.
It is recommended to wear suitable protective clothing such as gloves and reinforced work shoes for assembly.

Required Tools (Not included in the delivery!)

Phillips screwdriver, Flat screwdriver, Tape measure, Wrench, Drill bit, Drilling machine.

1. Determination and Scope of Use of the Products

The radiators are designed to be used in a closed central heating system.

2. Maximum Operating Pressure

Please note the maximum operating pressure specified in the assembly dimension table. Exceeding this level can damage the radiator and void any warranty.

3. Scope of Delivery of a Standard Packaging

1 pc. Radiator
1 pc. Air vent (A)
1 pc. Blanking plug (B)
4 pcs. Masonry wall plug (C)
4 pcs. Screws (D)
4 pcs. Washers (E)
4 pcs. Wall bracket

4. General Assembly Instructions

Check the contents of the packaging for completeness.
Make sure that you have the appropriate connection fitting.
Before drilling the holes, ensure there are no hidden water, electric, or gas lines behind the wall.
The distance between the floor and the bottom of the radiator should be at least 150 mm to allow for efficient heating and ventilation.
Prepare the necessary tools before assembly and ensure a clean, dry environment.
Ensure you are using the correct type of wall for mounting. The supplied wall plugs are only suitable for solid masonry. For other wall types, obtain the correct wall fixings.
The specified dimensions are for the main mounting holes on the brackets. Some brackets also require a second fixing hole.

Typical Connection Options

Scheme for vertical and horizontal panel and profile radiators: Shows different connection layouts for panel and profile radiators, indicating standard, offset, and side connection types.

Assembly Diagrams

Diagram ①: For radiators where brackets are positioned between the cross tubes: Shows a radiator mounted using brackets located between the horizontal cross tubes. Dimensions B (width), H (height), X (horizontal drill hole spacing), Y (vertical drill hole spacing), and NA (hub spacing) are indicated.

Diagram ②: For radiators where brackets are positioned on the manifold: Depicts a radiator mounted with brackets attached to the manifold (side pipes). Dimensions B, H, X, Y, and NA are shown.

Diagram ③: For radiators that are mounted with a bracket on the fixed bracket on the back: Presents two views: Vertical and Horizontal. The vertical view shows a radiator with brackets on the back. The horizontal view shows a radiator mounted with brackets on its rear surface. Dimensions B, H, X, Y, and NA are indicated.

Diagram ④: For radiators that are mounted on the fixed pins with mounting sleeves: Shows two views: Vertical and Horizontal. Radiators are mounted using pins and sleeves. Dimensions B, H, X, Y, and NA are indicated.

5. Assembly Instructions

If using the supplied masonry wall plugs, use the dimensions from the assembly dimension table to drill 4 holes with a depth of approximately 60 mm and a diameter of 8 mm.
Place the wall plugs (C) into the drilled holes (only in solid walls).
Attach the screw (D) and washer (E) to the bracket for fixing to the wall. Be careful not to overtighten the screw.
Some radiators are fitted with a baffle. These radiators will be marked with a sticker to advise the correct way up to install the radiator. To be sure, look inside the horizontal tubes; the baffle should be visible and at the bottom. If both horizontal tubes are clear, the baffle is not required, and the direction of installation is universal.
Hang the radiator on the bracket.
Mount the supplied air valve (A) and the blanking plug (B) in the upper threaded openings of the radiator.
Connect the flow and return to the selected side of the radiator using radiator valves (not included). Seal the threads watertight. PTFE tape or a similar sealing product is recommended for all connections. Leaks resulting from incorrect sealing are not covered under the warranty.
How to first fill and vent the radiator:
- Open the air vent.
- Slightly open the inlet valve (about 10%) while leaving the outlet valve totally closed.
- Allow the system to fill the radiator. If possible, fill without using the heating pump; it is important that the radiator is filled slowly.
- When the radiator has been filled, close the air vent.
- Open both inlet and outlet valves totally and use the heating system for about 2 hours.
- Totally close both inlet and outlet.
- Open the air vent and let out all air.
- This should clear all air from the radiator. If problems persist, on some systems, it may be necessary to fit an automatic air vent.

Care and Use

After installation, ensure the system has been thoroughly rinsed before use to flush out metal, flux, and foreign debris. The system must also be completely vented.
To prevent internal rust and limescale formation, add a suitable inhibitor to the central heating system when filling.
Clean the radiator with a soft, damp cloth. Never use a scouring pad, scouring agent, or chemical cleaning agent.

Troubleshooting

General Issues:

If some pipes in your radiator are not warm, check and vent them again using the air vent. If some tubes remain cold, the radiator may have been filled too quickly. Try running it on its own to force air out of the tubes. If this does not work, it may be necessary to drain and refill again slowly.
If the radiator has patchy heat or takes a long time to heat, it may have been fitted upside down. To check, lock off the radiator on both valves, then drain water from the air valve until the top tube is empty and you can remove the air valve and blanking nut. Look inside the tube; it should be totally clear. If you can see the baffle, it is fitted the wrong way up. If the radiator is fitted correctly, it may be necessary to rebalance the heating system.

Troubleshooting for Electric Radiators:

It is normal upon first use to see a small amount of water discharge from the pressure valve mounted on the side at the top of the radiator. After a short time, all panels should heat up. If this does not happen, it may be necessary to top up the radiator. To do this, place the radiator on its side and undo the top side nut. Top up with normal water and replace.
