Kartell K-VIT K-Therm Refined Thermostatic Radiator Valve – White & Chrome (Straight, Angled or Angled Twin Pack)

Kartell K-VIT K-Therm Refined Thermostatic Radiator Valve – White & Chrome (Straight, Angled or Angled Twin Pack)

The K-Therm Refined is a smart, good-value thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) from Kartell, with a white head and chrome body. Turn the numbered head to choose how warm you want the room, and the valve opens and closes by itself to hold that temperature – so each room is only heated as much as you need.

Every radiator needs two valves: the thermostatic valve that you turn to set the temperature, and a lockshield valve on the other end that your plumber sets once to balance the system. If you only need to swap the thermostatic side, a single valve is all you need; if you are fitting a new radiator, the twin pack gives you both.

Choose from the dropdown: a single straight valve, a single angled valve, or an angled twin pack that includes the matching lockshield. The valves are made from brass and the twin pack’s valve body is bi-directional, which means it works whichever side the hot water comes in from.

Which option do I need?

• Straight valve – a single thermostatic valve for pipes that come up through the floor into a radiator or towel rail whose connection points downwards. It does not include a lockshield valve.
• Angled valve – a single thermostatic valve for pipes that come up from the floor or out of the wall and turn through 90° into the side of the radiator. It does not include a lockshield valve.
• Angled twin pack – an angled thermostatic valve plus a matching lockshield valve for the other end of the radiator. This is the one to choose if you are fitting a new radiator or replacing both valves.

Ordering the wrong shape is an easy mistake to make, so it’s worth a quick look behind the radiator before you buy.

Fitting

These valves are for standard UK 15mm pipework. Fitting means draining down or isolating the heating system, so we recommend a plumber or heating engineer. Make sure the thermostatic head can ‘feel’ the air in the room – behind a long curtain or inside a box it will read trapped warm air and switch off too early.
