How to Use

1. Prepare Pipework:
   Ensure pipes (8mm, 10mm, or 15mm) are clean, cut squarely, and free of burrs for a secure fit.

2. Select Reducer:
   Choose the appropriate reducer sleeve (if using 8mm or 10mm pipes) and slide it onto the pipe before fitting the valve.

3. Fit Valve:
   Connect the valve using the 15mm compression fitting or the reducer with compression fittings for smaller pipes. Tighten compression nuts securely but avoid overtightening.

4. Attach to Radiator:
   Screw the valve’s 1/2″ BSP threaded tail onto the radiator inlet, ensuring a snug, leak-proof connection.

5. Adjust Temperature:
   Use the thermostatic control knob to set the desired room temperature. The valve will regulate flow automatically.

6. Test System:
   Turn on the heating system and check for leaks and proper valve operation. Adjust if necessary.

Care and Maintenance

• Regular Operation:
  Rotate the thermostatic knob periodically during the heating season to prevent sticking and ensure responsiveness.

• Leak Checks:
  Inspect compression fittings and radiator connection for signs of leaks and tighten gently if needed.

• Cleaning:
  Wipe the valve body with a damp cloth to keep it clean and free from dust buildup.

• Storage:
  When not installed, store the valve in its original packaging in a dry, cool environment to maintain seals and prevent corrosion.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can this valve fit pipes smaller than 8mm?
A: No, the included reducers accommodate 8mm, 10mm, and 15mm pipes only. Pipes smaller than 8mm are not compatible.

Q: What does dual flow mean and why is it important?
A: Dual flow means the valve can be installed so water flows in either direction, offering flexible installation options depending on radiator layout.

Q: Is this valve suitable for all radiator types?
A: Yes, it’s compatible with most radiator types using a 1/2″ BSP tail connection, including panel and column radiators.

Q: How long does the 5-year guarantee cover?
A: The guarantee covers manufacturing defects and malfunctions under normal use for five years from the date of purchase.
