The only additional thing you need to consider when purchasing radiator valves, is whether you would prefer a THERMOSTATIC valve or a NON-THERMONSTATIC valve.

What is the difference?

Thermostatic: Thermostatic Valves have number settings to control the level of heat. Number 1 being the least warm, up to Number 5 which is very toasty.

Non-Thermostatic: These valves are plain/discreet and are used for the inlet and outlet of water, but CANNOT control the heat setting.

A popular customer choice is to have a thermostatic valve at one end & a non-thermostatic valve at the other. See the example image.

Radiator Outlet also stock radiator PIPES.

These pipes are plumbed in as a more permanent feature, are UK standard specification and come in a choice of Chrome, White and our Anthracite Grey.

Our radiator pipes are a refreshing upgrade from the typical copper coloured pipe, having been coated to match our valves and radiators perfectly, ensuring your completed radiator project looks attractive and professional.

See our valve information video below, for a more visual demonstration of the correct valves required for each type of variable.
