Frequently Asked Questions
With a depth of 221mm, how far from the wall will the front of the Neo Georgian 6-column radiator project?
The 221mm depth is the radiator body only. You need to leave a technical air gap of at least 30mm behind the radiator to ensure air can circulate around the rear columns. This means the front face of the radiator will project approximately 251mm to 260mm into the room. You must ensure this does not obstruct walkways or door swings in the installation area.
Does the 6-column configuration of the Neo Georgian make it difficult to paint if I order it in Primer Grey?
Yes, painting a 6-column deep radiator with a brush is extremely challenging. The inner columns are physically hard to reach with a standard paintbrush, leading to missed spots or "holidays" in the finish which can rust. The correct technical approach is to use spray application (HVLP or aerosol) to ensure the paint penetrates deep into the center of the 221mm wide sections without pooling.
How does the weight of over 8kg per section impact the installation of a 20-section Neo Georgian radiator?
A 20-section model weighs 168kg dry and holds approx 40kg of water, totaling over 200kg. On a suspended timber floor, this creates a massive point load. You cannot simply place this on floorboards. You technically must locate the joists and position the feet directly over them, or install a structural plywood sub-base or spreader plate to distribute the load and prevent the floor from sagging or creaking permanently.
Is the Neo Georgian 6-column radiator suitable for use with renewable heating systems like Heat Pumps?
Yes, it is technically ideal. The 6-column design provides a huge surface area (221mm depth) relative to its height. This allows it to emit a large amount of heat even at low flow temperatures (Delta T 30
What type of wall stay is required for a radiator that is 221mm deep?
Standard "L-bracket" wall stays are too short. The rear of the radiator sits roughly 140mm-150mm from the wall centerline. You must specify Extended Luxury Wall Stays with a long threaded rod (typically 250mm+) that can be cut to size. The stay should be clamped between the sections near the top to prevent the heavy unit from tipping forward, which is a significant risk given its weight.
How do I clean the dust from the center of a 6-column deep radiator?
The 6-column design creates a dense "honeycomb" of iron channels. Standard dusters cannot reach the center columns. Over time, dust buildup will insulate the iron and reduce convection. You should technically use a long, flexible radiator brush (specifically designed for multi-column radiators) or compressed air to blow dust out from the center channels at least once a year to maintain thermal efficiency.
Does the Neo Georgian 6-column radiator require larger pipework than standard radiators?
The internal waterways of a 6-column radiator are vast. It acts as a large reservoir of hot water. While 15mm pipework is sufficient for flow, we recommend ensuring your system is properly balanced. If installed on a circuit with microbore (10mm) piping, the radiator may fill very slowly and the bottom center may remain cool. 15mm copper piping is the minimum recommended standard for this high-volume unit.
Can I assemble a 30-section Neo Georgian radiator on-site?
Yes. A 30-section model weighs 252kg and is unsafe to lift manually. It will be delivered in 2 or 3 smaller batteries (e.g., 10 sections each). You must use a Cast Iron Joining Key and nipples to assemble them in position. Crucially, because the radiator is 221mm deep, you must tighten the nipples very evenly (alternating top and bottom turns) to ensure the wide gasket compresses parallel, otherwise, the joint will leak.
