    Where to buy Stelrad

    I’m looking to buy a couple of Stelrad Compact Vertical rads, an 1800 x 400 and an 1800 x 600 but the price is slightly off-putting given the current financial squeeze. Where would the professional plumbers go to buy these?

    Stelrad Radical trickling sound

    Hello Chaps I've got a stelrad new fangled radical eco radiator ( fitted this instead of 'normal stelrad" as apparently pumps out more heat from the front, rather than the back, and as in a loft room thought would be better option), installed in a loft room, its the only rad "up stairs". The...

    How to top up Stelrad Ideal boiler? Mystery hose...

    Hello boiler junkies! Below is the beast I'm dealing with. The heating suddenly stopped so I went to investigate and discovered that the system was low on pressure. But how to top up? The previous boiler I had to take care of was attached to a small cylinder, you just needed to flick a couple...

    Stelrad, Myson or Quinn?

    Just a quick question for those of you who fit this stuff day in, day out... I quite like the 'designer' offerings from Stelrad, Myson and Quinn. Price wise, they are about the same, through a merchant, so not a huge difference there for me. Only thing is, Myson and Quinn have 10 year...

    Can you actually buy a 'bad' radiator nowadays??

    Okay, so apparently nobody has heard of the Warmehaus rads I questioned about a few days ago, Anyone heard of Warmehaus / Fjord radiators?! - Plumbing Forum , but it made me think in more general terms as to whether nowadays it's realistically possible to actually buy a bad radiator and how you...

    Stelrad ideal wlx RS50

    What's the general consensus on this boiler? We will be replacing this in the coming years as opposed to months - I'm just curious as to how inefficient it really is compared with a modern condensing boiler. From what I've been told it's nice and easy to service and built to last with virtually...

    Stelrad Ideal NF80 won't stay on

    I have an old Stelrad Classic NF80 boiler - as old as the house (40 years). It won't stay on. I've had a CH engineer call 3 times. He's replaced the fan and then it worked, but went off after about a day, and the ignite procedure didn't work. Then he said the overheat switch had turned it off...

    Henrad vs Stelrad

    Following recent post (A rad is a rad?) which got a great response, decided on Stelrad. Went to my local supplier and they stock Henrads. I know they are same company now, but Henrad seems to be more expensive than Stelrad, but specs are identical. Anyone got any idea why? To be honest the...

    A rad is a rad?

    Hi Folks. Opinions please. Been asked to supply some rads for a customer, prices quoted by my usual plumbing supplier are well above prices from e.g Toolstation. Do all rads of the same spec (size etc) throw out the same amount of heat? Or is it worth spending the extra cash? Thanks in...

    Stelrad Elan bf boiler

    The local council are sponsoring a scrappage scheme which an householder has just informed me on and their boiler is the above. Trying to find if this comes into band g or who if anybody bought out these. Should really know this but my brain i think should be rated at band g and scrapped.

    Intergas 36/30 MWT - Rad Sizing

    Posted this on another forum - but thought I would try here as well: OK - I just completed the heat loss calcs with Stelrad Stars. However I just realised Stars uses a default MWT of 75°C. This can be manually changed which will then re-calculate the figures. I'm not sure what Delta T figure...

    I have a new Stelrad compact to install. To follow MI's or use Loctite 55 instead?

    As part of the upcoming bathroom refit I'm replacing the exising 30 odd year old rad with a Stelrad compact. The existing one has no fins on the back, is avocado green with rusty bits. For the sake of £28 it wasn't worth faffing around cleaning it up and re painting. The instructions say to use...
