Kartell K-VIT Dual Fuel Corner Radiator Valves for Electric Elements (Pair) – Chrome (CRNV-DF)

Kartell K-VIT Dual Fuel Corner Radiator Valves for Electric Elements (Pair) – Chrome (CRNV-DF)

Chrome corner radiator valves made for dual fuel towel rails – rails that run on the central heating most of the year but can also be heated by an electric element when the heating is off. One valve in the pair has an extra ½” BSPT connection for the electric element, so the element fits neatly through the valve.

These are corner valves: use them where the pipes come straight out of the wall behind the towel rail. They pair with our dual fuel heating elements and thermostatic dual fuel elements (element sold separately).

These are manual valves: you turn the head by hand to open or close the radiator, rather than the valve controlling the room temperature for you. They come as a pair – one valve to turn the radiator on and off, and a matching lockshield valve for the other end, which your plumber sets once to balance the heating system. Manual valves are a simple, good-looking choice for towel rails and radiators where you don’t need automatic temperature control.

Fitting

The valves are for standard UK 15mm pipework and connect to the radiator or towel rail with a standard ½” BSP fitting. Fitting means draining down or isolating the heating system, so we recommend using a plumber or heating engineer. Protect the finish while tightening the nuts (a couple of layers of cloth or paper between the spanner and the nut helps) and don’t over-tighten.

Looking after the finish

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry. Avoid abrasive pads, bleach and strong cleaning sprays, which can damage the polished chrome finish.
