advice on which valves to purchase for piped installation (central heating)
- This radiator is not supplied with valves, as we offer a vast range of styles and colours. We do not include them because we cannot make this aesthetic choice on your behalf.
- We make choosing the correct valves easy. With years of experience, we know once a radiator has been chosen, valve selection can feel daunting — and even plumbers rarely make the best aesthetic choice. As the homeowner, this decision is best made by you.
- On the right-hand side of this page we have pre-filtered our valve selection to show only the optimal valves for this specific model. You’ll see two sections:
- 1. matching / complementary colour valve & pipe sets — note: we don’t offer any matching colour valves for this specific colour.
- 2. standard valve & pipe sets — more economical standard valves which are not painted to match the radiator. Pipes and covers must be purchased separately.
-
Which orientation of valves do I need: 3-axis (corner), straight or angled?
- 1. Pipework through the wall — possible, but not typical for this style of radiator. Wall-fed installations require 3-axis corner valves.
- 2. Pipework through the floor — preferred option for this model; use angled valves.
- Additionally, we have created a thorough and detailed technical guide on radiator valves, giving even more information and tips.
