Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Beaumont Rococo radiator special?
The Beaumont Rococo is known for its elegant floral patterns inspired by French design from the 1890s. It combines classic style with effective heating, acting as both art and a radiator.
Will this radiator keep my room warm enough?
Yes. Cast iron retains heat for a long time, keeping rooms warm even after the boiler is turned off. It is ideal for large rooms with high ceilings.
How do I pick the right size for my room?
Use a BTU calculator. Measure room length, width, and height, then enter these into the calculator to find the correct radiator size.
What happens if I buy the wrong size?
A radiator that’s too small won’t heat the room sufficiently. It’s better to choose one slightly bigger, as you can turn down a large radiator but can’t make a small one hotter.
Do I really need to buy wall stays?
Yes, wall stays are essential for safety. They secure the heavy radiator to the wall and prevent tipping, especially important with children or pets.
Can I install this radiator by myself?
Professional installation is recommended. Cast iron radiators are heavy; a 10-section model can weigh over 50kg, so at least two people are needed to move it safely.
Will it work with my modern central heating?
Yes, it’s compatible with modern boilers and works like a standard radiator, with the added benefit of holding more water and staying warm longer.
What valves should I choose?
Thermostatic Radiator Valves (TRVs) are recommended. They allow you to set room temperatures and save energy. Brass or chrome styles match the radiator
Does the radiator come painted?
You can choose a primer finish for DIY painting or a fully painted option in colors like black, white, or anthracite.
What does the burnished finish look like?
A burnished finish highlights the floral scrolls by polishing the iron, giving a grand, shiny appearance ideal for hallways or living rooms.
How do I clean the intricate patterns?
Use a soft brush or vacuum with a brush attachment weekly. Avoid wet cloths on primer finishes to protect the paint.
Why does it take longer to heat up?
Cast iron is thick and dense, taking around 20 minutes to heat. It stays hot for over an hour after heating stops, providing steady warmth.
Can I use this radiator in a bathroom?
Yes, if the paint finish is intact to prevent rust from moisture.
What are the two height options available?
460mm fits under windows; 810mm is taller for larger walls. Measure your space before ordering.
Do I need special pipes for installation?
Standard 15mm copper pipes work. Pipes must reach the correct height from the floor or wall since the radiator is floor-mounted.
Is there a guarantee on these radiators?
Yes, a 10-year guarantee covers leaks or manufacturing defects.
How do I bleed the radiator?
Use a radiator key to open the top valve slightly. Air hissing out indicates trapped air; close when water appears.
What is the difference between primer and full paint?
Primer is a protective base layer; full paint is the final finish that seals and looks good. Full paint is recommended for easy installation.
Can I mix these with my old radiators?
Yes, but ensure the heating system is balanced so all radiators heat evenly.
