Precautions

• The temperature control valve is fully installed at the entrance of the radiator, please pay attention to the direction of the arrow when installing.
• In order to facilitate the installation of the thermostat, the handle should be set to the open position (the position of number 5) before installation, and the lock nut of the thermostat should be screwed onto the valve.
• In order to avoid functional failures caused by welding slag and other debris, pipes and radiators should be thoroughly cleaned.
• When retrofitting an old heating system, a filter should be installed in front of the radiator thermostat valve.
• The radiator thermostatic valve should be installed correctly so that the thermostat is installed in a horizontal position.

Applications

Manual and automatic radiator thermostatic valves can be used for controlling the temperature in a room by regulating the flow of hot water into a radiator. Straight or corner type radiator thermostatic valves can improve the efficiency of central heating systems, and can help to reduce energy consumption and costs, widely used in residential and commercial buildings, and can be installed on individual radiators or as part of a larger central heating system.

Tips: What is a Radiator Thermostatic Valve?

A radiator thermostatic valve (TRV) is a type of valve that is installed on a radiator and used to control the flow of hot water into the radiator. The valve contains a temperature-sensitive element that reacts to changes in the room temperature and adjusts the flow of water into the radiator accordingly.

When the room temperature drops below the desired level, the thermostatic valve opens up and allows more hot water to flow into the radiator, which in turn heats up the room. Conversely, when the room temperature rises above the desired level, the valve closes down and reduces the flow of hot water into the radiator, which helps to maintain a constant temperature.

The advantage of using a radiator thermostatic valve is that it allows for individual room temperature control, which can help to save energy and reduce heating costs. Rooms that are not used frequently, for example, can be kept at a lower temperature to save energy, while rooms that are used frequently can be kept at a higher temperature for comfort.

Radiator thermostatic valves are available in both manual and automatic versions and can be installed on most types of radiators. They are widely used in residential and commercial buildings as part of central heating systems.
