Key Features and Specifications
Compliance: Manufactured to meet EN 215 standards, ensuring reliable thermostatic performance and safety in domestic and commercial heating systems.

Material & Finish: Constructed from high-strength brass with a premium Polished Chrome finish, designed to complement modern radiator styles and bathroom towel rails.

Configuration: Angled Body:

Specifically designed for pipework emerging from the floor or wall at a 90-degree angle to the radiator entry point.

Suitable for 15mm copper pipework using standard compression joints.

Thermostatic Control (TRV): Features a liquid-filled sensor for highly accurate temperature detection. The user-adjustable head allows for individual room settings, automatically throttling water flow to maintain the desired ambient temperature.

Frost Protection: The TRV includes a dedicated "frost" setting, which ensures the valve opens slightly if the temperature drops below 7°C, preventing pipe bursts in unoccupied rooms.

Lockshield Valve: Included for system balancing. Once the system is commissioned, the lockshield is adjusted to ensure an even distribution of heat across the entire property.

The Installer's Advantage
This matching pack ensures visual consistency across the radiator and simplifies the procurement process. The angled design is the most common configuration for UK heating systems, providing a neat and compact installation. By installing a TRV, you significantly improve the system's energy efficiency; the valve prevents rooms from overheating, which reduces boiler firing time and lowers energy bills for the end-user.

Essential Companion Products
To achieve a professional, long-lasting installation, the following products are recommended:

Joint Preparation: Apply Hawk Jointing Compound (400g) to the radiator tails to ensure a permanent, leak-free seal.

System Protection: After installation, treat the system with Hinton H14 System Inhibitor to protect the valve's internal brass components from corrosion.

Primary Pipework: For the supply lines to the valves: Copper Tube 15mm x 0.7mm x 3m.

Internal Routing: For tighter spaces behind radiators, consider: Copper Tube 10mm x 10m Soft Pipe.
