What colour is nickel?
Nickel has a warm, silvery appearance with subtle golden undertones. It’s comparable to chrome but with a softer, more refined look. Our polished nickel finish further enhances this effect, making it a popular choice for those seeking a balance between modern shine and classic elegance.

Are these valves compatible with all radiator types?
Yes, our polished nickel angled radiator valves are designed to be compatible with most radiator types, including traditional cast iron and modern panel radiators. The standard fittings ensure easy installation across various radiator models.

How do thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) work?
Traditional thermostatic angled radiator valves gauge the air temperature in the room and adjust the flow of hot water to the radiator accordingly. This automatic regulation helps maintain a consistent room temperature, enhancing comfort and improving energy efficiency by reducing unnecessary heating.
-
Can I install these valves myself, or do I need a professional?
While our valves are designed for straightforward installation, we recommend consulting a qualified heating engineer to ensure proper fitting and optimal performance of your heating system.

How do I maintain the polished nickel finish?
