Material

Steel offers the lowest price tag compared to other materials, but it also offers the most diversity in terms of colour and style. Steel is malleable which allows radiators to be efficient because they can be physically designed to better pass heat from the water inside to the space around them (this is a radiator's job after all, despite some thinking that its job is to “store” heat). The heat output is also good, the proof is in the pudding with this one - would steel be the most common radiator material if the heat output was rubbish? Steel is a highly durable material which is important as radiators are going to be the victims of some knocks and bangs over time and you want them to withstand that.

Columns

“Column” refers to the style of radiator but when there is a number in in front of this – e.g. “2 Column”, we’re talking about the structure of the radiator itself. Column radiator sections are made from vertical tubes which are connected at the top and bottom, the number comes from the how many vertical tubes there are in these sections. A 2 column radiator has 2 vertical tubes, a 3 column has 3 and so on. 2 column (sometimes known as double column) is the slimmest type of column radiator on the market. The heat output of a 2 column radiator is less than the larger, 3, 4 or 6 variants of column radiators. But that doesn’t mean to say they won’t warm up the room - especially small rooms which their slim styles are predominantly designed for.

Colour

Anthracite is a high-end variety of coal noted for the purity of its carbon and the dark grey smoke it emits when burning. It’s also one of our customers’ most popular picks for a modern-looking radiator that looks as good as it functions. The smoky matt finish you achieve with this colour is quite unlike any other and produces a stylish effect with even the most minimalist design. As we become more conscious of our surroundings, tastes shift from the functional and the merely decorative to something combining qualities of both, and anthracite radiators certainly tick all of the boxes.

Heat Source

A central heating or hot water radiator is one that is plumbed into your homes central heating system. Whether you have a Combi boiler, gravity fed (conventional) system or a system with a cylinder, you can install this radiator.

Accessories

This radiator has G1/2” connections either side at the bottom and so the valves required will depend on your pipework (which is why they aren’t provided with the radiator):

  • For pipework coming from the wall to the side of the radiator, use corner valves.
  • For pipework coming from the floor and up to the side of the radiator, use angled valves.
  • For pipework coming along the wall to meet the side of the radiator, use straight valves.

This radiator is provided with wall mounting brackets and column radiator feet are not a requirement. However, if you want to emphasize traditional style then we definitely recommend purchasing some colour matching feet. The feet can be used along with the wall brackets to help carry some of the weight of the radiator. Alternatively, don’t use the wall brackets provided and instead purchase some wall stays in either a matching or contrasting colour!

There are a few different types of valves available for you to choose from: Manual Valves provide easy on/off control – simply turn the valve by hand to allow the water from your central heating to pass through into the radiator or towel rail, just like a tap! If this radiator is going to be in the same room as your main boiler thermostat (usually a little box on the wall or the mantle, that you turn up and down) then we advise you to use manual valves over TRV’s because a TRV will conflict with your boiler thermostat and can cause temperature issues around the home. Thermostatic Valves (TRVs) provide multi temperature control of the radiators in your home – saving energy and money! These valves have sensor mechanisms inside that shut off the flow of hot water to the radiator when the room temperature reached the desired level! If your looking to reduce your carbon footprint while remaining cosy warm, then TRV’s are the way to go (provided they aren’t installed in the room where your main boiler thermostat is).

BTUs & Watts Explained

What is a Watt?

Watts are our main unit of energy/power in the UK, commonly associated with lightbulbs and Home Energy performance certificates (EPCs).

What is a BTU?

BTUs are the unit of measurement used to portray a radiators heat output and a rooms heating requirement. 1 Watt is equal to 3.41 BTUs.

Why are they important?

We buy radiators to heat our homes, right? So, we need a way of knowing if a radiator is powerful enough to heat the room that we are shopping for - Watts and BTUs provide us with a value that makes its easier to compare radiators and ultimately choose the right one for our heating requirement.

Delta Ratings Explained

What is a Delta (Δ) Rating?

When discussing heat outputs, the Delta rating is the difference between the temperature of the water inside the heating system and the desired temperature of the room.

What does the value represent?

In simple terms, this value is about heat loss. Heating a room only works, if the radiator output exceeds the heat loss of the room.

We use this calculation to make it easy to choose a radiator that will have a heat output that exceeds the heat loss of the room when connected to your heating system type.

What Delta Rating should I use?

Unless you have a low temperature system like a heat pump, then please look at the Delta 50 heat outputs.

RELATED ITEMS

Our warehouse team take great care packaging every item to ensure safe shipment to you. We charge a shipping fee only to cover our costs of materials and labour. Once your order has been processed and we have received cleared payment, your item will be dispatched as soon as possible. Please allow extra time if you are paying by cheque.

Preparation for Delivery, Shipping Charges and Delivery Dates.

All our goods are specially prepared for delivery. For larger items, this means that we construct a supported pallet to ensure a safe delivery. On smaller items, care is taken to ensure that the finished product is securely wrapped for courier delivery or Royal Mail shipping.

...Or you can collect from us

You may complete the order using the 'collection/non-delivery' option and arrange your own shipping of the goods (except where a listing specifically excludes collections), however we would advise you that in the event of damage during transit, you would need to claim from your own courier, which, from our previous experience can be a lengthy process. You would then need to arrange a replacement product to be re-shipped to you at your own expense. It is for this reason that we recommend you use our shipping contract.

Delivery Timescales

Palleted goods can take up to 7 working days to be delivered. When your goods arrive at your local pallet depot, you will receive a call to confirm a convenient time for your delivery. This means that you do not have to wait in until your goods arrive. Courier goods usually take 1-2 working day to be delivered, with the exception of certain areas of the UK such as the 'highlands and islands' of Scotland and other, difficult-to-reach locations. If you are not in when a delivery is attempted, an 'attempted delivery card' will be left at your home with a contact number for your local courier depot. Please contact them to arrange a suitable re-delivery date. Smaller, lower-value goods are shipped by Royal Mail's first class post, however these items cannot be tracked through to delivery point. Please allow around 3 days for delivery, in case there is a postal delay. No guarantees are offered for delivery timescales (this would significantly increase the shipping prices).

We therefore respectfully ask that you do not arrange for a plumber or other tradesperson to fit your goods until you have received and checked your order. We cannot be held responsible for wasted tradesperson visits and charges incurred as a result.

If, for any reason, your goods will take longer than 30 days to be delivered to you, we will notify you by e-mail. In the rare event of delayed delivery (in excess of 30 days) you have the choice to either wait for the goods to be delivered, or request a complete refund. Requests for refunds must be made using the eBay system to e-mail us.

Your pallet delivery driver will wait up to 20 minutes while you check the condition of your goods. Please check both the external packaging and the product inside for any damage.

If you know you will be accepting a heavy delivery, please ensure that you have arranged for enough people to carry your goods into your home. The drivers are only insured to deliver goods to the curb and are not required to carry goods into your home.

Damage to the Delivery

If you find any damage, please sign the pallet as 'DAMAGED' and the driver will take the damaged pallet away.

If you are having multiple items delivered and only some are damaged, please sign 'DAMAGED' for the goods that are damaged. You have the choice of accepting the undamaged goods or rejecting the entire delivery.

Important Note

Please note that arranging a date and time for a pallet delivery constitutes a contract between yourself and the delivery firm that you will be there and ready to accept the pallet at the time you specify.

If you are not available to receive the delivery, the pallet will be returned to your local courier's depot and you will be charged a full pallet delivery fee again for any subsequent redelivery attempts.

If someone else will be signing for your goods

If someone else is signing for the goods on your behalf, you agree to ensure that your nominated signatory checks the goods prior to acceptance. You agree to accept full responsibility for any loss or damage if your nominated signatory signs on your behalf and fails to check the delivery. You agree to indemnify us in full for any losses we suffer as a result of your accepting goods and signing a delivery note without checking the goods for carrier damage. All goods must be signed for by an adult aged 18 years or over on delivery.
