Frequently Asked Questions (9)

This radiator is listed for central heating. Can it be converted to a dual-fuel system so I can run it electrically in the summer?
Yes, absolutely. While supplied as a standard central heating radiator, the Chalfont model is generally compatible with dual-fuel conversion. You would need to purchase a separate dual-fuel kit (a T-adapter that replaces the blanking plug) and a suitable electric heating element. This allows you to run the Towel rail radiator electric and central heating, keeping towels warm without turning on your boiler during warmer months. We recommend consulting a qualified electrician for installation.
What is the exact wall-to-center and center-to-center pipe distance required for installation?
As this is a floor-mounted Towel rail radiator wall mounted variants differ, it does not use standard wall brackets. Being floor-mounted, the pipework will typically emerge from the floor. The center-to-center distance between the two valves is determined by the width of the radiator and the specific valve type you choose. For accurate placement, you must install the radiator feet first and mark the exact valve positions based on the physical unit and your chosen angled or straight valves.
What is the maximum operating pressure and temperature this radiator is rated for?
While specific pressures aren't listed, radiators of this construction (mild steel and brass) are typically suitable for sealed central heating systems operating up to 10 bar (though normal operating pressure is 1-2 bar) and temperatures up to 95
The product code is CHAL1550, but the width is 500mm. I was searching for a Heated Towel Rail 600mm wide. Is this the correct model for my space?
The Chalfont 1500mm Tall model specifically has a width of 500mm. If you require a 600mm wide Traditional Towel Radiator, we stock alternative models in the Chalfont range or other traditional collections that may meet that specific width requirement. Please browse our 'Traditional Towel Rails' category or use the width filter to find the perfect fit. This model is ideal for taller, narrower spaces.
The product description mentions brass tubes. Are the water-carrying sections brass or steel?
This radiator features a hybrid construction for both aesthetics and performance. The visible vertical tubes are made from brass, offering a superior, corrosion-resistant finish that maintains its shine. The horizontal water-carrying sections and the main body are made from steel, which is the most efficient material for heat transfer and provides the structural rigidity needed for a large Towel rail radiator bathroom unit.
What is the water capacity of this radiator? This is important for my system's inhibitor calculation.
The exact water volume is not listed in the standard specifications. Given its size (1500mm x 500mm) and 5-section construction, the water capacity is likely between 8 and 12 litres. To protect your central heating system from sludge and corrosion, it is vital to add the correct concentration of inhibitor. We recommend using a standard radiator inhibitor and calculating the total system volume, including this radiator, based on its estimated capacity or contacting us for the precise figure.
Is the 10-year guarantee conditional on registered installation or specific system water additives?
The comprehensive 10-year guarantee covers the structural integrity and finish of the radiator against manufacturing defects. To maintain its validity, the radiator must be installed by a competent person (ideally a Gas Safe registered engineer for gas systems) in accordance with UK plumbing regulations. It is also a condition that the central heating system is treated with a corrosion inhibitor (e.g., Fernox or Sentinel) and that the system is regularly flushed and maintained to prevent internal corrosion, which is not covered under the guarantee.
What type of valves are compatible with this floor-mounted radiator?
Because the Chalfont is floor-mounted, the inlet and outlet pipes will emerge from the floor. Therefore, you will require floor-mounted radiator valves. These are specifically designed with a longer shroud to cover the pipe coming from the floor and connect to the radiator's inlet. Angled valves designed for wall-mounted radiators are not suitable. We recommend choosing traditional-style valves, such as pillar taps or floor-mounted wheel-head valves, to complement the Chalfont's classic aesthetic.
The BTU output is 2518. How does this compare to a standard Type 22 panel radiator for a bathroom of this size?
A Type 22 double-panel, double-convector radiator of similar dimensions (1500x500mm) might have a slightly higher output (approx. 3000-4000 BTU). However, the Chalfont's output of 2518 BTU is perfectly adequate for a medium-to-large UK bathroom, especially when considering the primary function of a towel radiator is to provide background warmth and dry towels. Its primary advantage is the superior towel-hanging capacity and the classic aesthetic of a Traditional Towel Radiator, which a standard white panel radiator cannot match.
