Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Gatsby Cast Iron Radiator?
The Gatsby is a special type of heater made from strong cast iron metal with an elegant Art Deco style. It heats your room efficiently while adding a classic look.
Why is cast iron better than steel?
Cast iron is thicker and heavier, so it holds heat longer. Even after the heating is off, it keeps the room warm for hours.
What affects the Gatsby radiator price?
Size and finish. Bigger radiators cost more, and hand-painted or polished finishes are pricier than primer.
Does this radiator come in gold or brass colors?
Yes, many luxury finishes are available. The brushed brass look is especially popular.
Do I need a professional to install this?
Yes. These radiators are extremely heavy, and a trained plumber should install them safely.
What are wall stays and do I need them?
Wall stays secure the radiator to the wall. They are strongly recommended to prevent tipping.
How do I pick the right size for my room?
Use a BTU calculator and choose a model with a matching heat output.
What is the guarantee on these radiators?
A full 10-year guarantee covering manufacturing defects.
Can I paint the radiator myself?
Yes. Buy the radiator in Primer finish and paint it with metal-safe paint.
Do valves come with the radiator?
No, valves are sold separately. You can choose manual or thermostatic styles.
What is the Art Deco style?
A 1920s design style with clean lines and geometric shapes, giving the radiator a decorative, elegant look.
How do I clean my cast iron radiator?
Dust regularly and wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are these radiators suitable for modern homes?
Yes. They work with modern heating systems and look stunning in both modern and vintage interiors.
Do the radiators arrive fully assembled?
Usually yes. Very long radiators may come in two parts for easy delivery.
How heavy is the Gatsby radiator?
Medium sizes weigh around 112 kg, and large models can exceed 200 kg. Ensure your floor can support the weight.
Can I choose a specific paint color?
Yes, you can choose from colour ranges like Farrow & Ball or Little Greene.
What is the difference between BTU and Watts?
Both measure heat output. BTU is commonly used in the UK to size radiators.
How long does delivery usually take?
Delivery takes longer due to weight and custom finishes. Check the product page for lead times.
Why is the Gatsby radiator price higher than panel radiators?
It’s made from solid cast iron and hand-finished, unlike thin steel panel radiators.
Will the radiator surface get very hot?
Yes, cast iron surfaces get hot. Use caution around children or add a radiator cover.
