Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Stelrad Tallis S4H radiator different from normal radiators?
The Stelrad Tallis S4H is a designer radiator that uses flat rectangular tubes instead of the bumpy panels you see in old houses. It is made from high quality steel which makes it look very modern and stylish. This radiator is perfect for people who want their home to look fancy while still keeping it very warm.
Does the vertical Stelrad Tallis radiator give enough heat for a big room?
Yes the vertical Stelrad Tallis is very powerful. Even though it is tall and thin it has a large surface area that lets it push out a lot of heat. If you have a big living room you should choose the double version because it has two rows of tubes and gives out almost twice as much heat as the single version.
What is the difference between the Single and Double Tallis models?
The difference is the number of tube rows. The Single model has one row of tubes and sits closer to the wall which is great for narrow hallways. The Double model has two rows of tubes one behind the other. The Double sticks out a bit more but it provides much higher heat output to warm up large spaces like lounges or dining rooms.
Can I put a Stelrad Tallis vertical radiator in my kitchen?
Yes a vertical radiator is actually the best choice for a kitchen. Kitchens often have cupboards and fridges that take up all the wall space. A tall vertical Tallis radiator can fit on a narrow strip of wall or behind a door so you can heat the room without losing space for your cabinets.
Do I need to buy special valves for this radiator?
Yes you need to buy radiator valves separately because they do not come in the box. This gives you the freedom to pick valves that match your room style. You can choose angled valves if your pipes come from the floor or corner valves if pipes come from the wall. We suggest chrome valves to match the modern look.
What colors are available for the Tallis S4H radiator?
The two main colors are Traffic White and Anthracite Grey. Traffic White is a clean and bright white that looks good on any wall. Anthracite Grey is a dark grey color with a slight texture that is very popular right now because it looks expensive and hides dust very well.
Is the Anthracite Grey finish smooth or rough?
The Anthracite Grey finish on the Tallis radiator has a slight texture. This means it is not shiny or slippery like smooth plastic. The texture gives it a premium matt look that feels like quality metal and it stops fingerprints from showing up when you touch it.
How do I know which size radiator to buy for my room?
To find the right size you need to know the BTU requirement of your room. BTU is just a number that tells you how much heat is needed. You can use the BTU calculator on the Budget Radiators website to get this number. Once you have your number pick a radiator that matches it to ensure your room stays cozy.
Does the Stelrad Tallis come with a warranty?
Yes every Stelrad Tallis radiator comes with a 10 year manufacturer warranty. This is a very long guarantee that covers you if the radiator leaks or if the paint starts to peel. It shows that the product is built to last for a very long time in your home.
Can I swap my old wide radiator for a vertical one?
You can swap them but you will likely need to move the pipes. Old wide radiators have pipes that are far apart. A vertical radiator is narrow so the pipes need to be closer together. A plumber can easily move the pipes under the floor or along the wall to make the new vertical radiator fit perfectly.
What is the S4H meaning in the product name?
S4H stands for Stelrad 4 Horizontal. It refers to the design style of the tubes. Even though it is called 4 Horizontal it is available in both vertical and horizontal shapes. It is just the technical name for this specific family of flat tube designer radiators.
Is the Tallis radiator suitable for bathrooms?
Yes you can use the Tallis radiator in a bathroom. It produces a lot of heat which is great for keeping a bathroom warm and drying damp air. However it does not have gaps to hang towels like a ladder rail. You might want to add a towel bar accessory or use a separate towel rail if you need to dry lots of towels.
How far does the radiator stick out from the wall?
The projection depends on the model. The Single Tallis sticks out about 95mm from the wall. The Double Tallis is thicker and sticks out about 120mm from the wall. You should measure your space to make sure the radiator will not block any doors or walkways before you buy it.
Are these radiators compatible with normal central heating systems?
Yes the Stelrad Tallis works perfectly with standard UK central heating systems. You do not need any special equipment. It works just like a normal panel radiator but looks much better. It connects to your boiler and pump system exactly the same way your old radiators do.
Does the radiator arrive ready to install?
The radiator arrives with the brackets you need to hang it on the wall. It also includes the bleed vent and blanking plug. You only need to provide the valves and the tools to fix it to the wall. Make sure your wall is strong enough to hold the weight because these are heavy steel radiators.
How do I clean between the tubes of the radiator?
Cleaning the Tallis is quite easy because the tubes are flat and smooth. You can use a duster or a soft damp cloth to wipe the front. To clean between the tubes you can use a long radiator brush which you can buy at most hardware stores to push out any dust from the gaps.
Is the Stelrad Tallis energy efficient?
Yes this radiator is very efficient. It is made of low carbon steel which heats up quickly when your heating turns on. It also holds onto heat well. Because it has a good water flow design it helps your boiler work effectively to keep your house warm without wasting money on gas.
Can I install this radiator on a plasterboard wall?
These radiators are heavy so you must be careful with plasterboard walls. You should try to screw the brackets into the wooden studs behind the plasterboard. If you cannot find the studs you must use heavy duty plasterboard fixings. For very large double models it is safer to mount them on a solid brick wall.
Why should I choose Stelrad over other brands?
Stelrad is one of the most trusted radiator brands in the UK. They are known for making high quality products that do not rust easily. Buying a brand name radiator means you are getting safety reliability and a real warranty that you can trust unlike some cheap unbranded copies.
What happens if the radiator arrives damaged?
If your radiator arrives with any damage you should contact Budget Radiators immediately. They have a returns policy to help you. It is important to check the radiator as soon as the delivery driver arrives so you can report any scratches or dents before you try to install it.
