Compact convector radiator Kermi KKV16, valve-ready, height 250 mm, length 1000 mm

Kermi KKV16 compact convector radiator, valve-ready, height 250 mm and length 1000 mm, is designed for hydronic central heating systems where a low-profile radiator is required. The unit accepts a separate thermostatic or manual valve connection and delivers convective heat output suitable for rooms with limited space or for underwindow installation. Its compact dimensions and convector design allow effective room warming while keeping the visible profile minimal.

Advantages

The valve-ready configuration allows easy connection to existing thermostatic or manual control valves without integrated fittings. A height of 250 mm provides a low visual impact, making it suitable for installation below windows or in rooms with limited wall space. The convector design promotes efficient air circulation and fast heat-up times compared with plain panel radiators of the same footprint. Durable corrosion-resistant surfaces and a finish consistent with the manufacturer's quality standards ensure long-term operation in residential or commercial settings.

Suitable for

• Underwindow installations in apartments, houses, or offices
• Replacement of older low-height radiators in renovation projects
• Rooms with limited wall height or where a discreet heating solution is needed
• Hydronic central heating systems that use separate thermostatic or manual valves

Key specifications

• Convector radiator type with low profile design
• Height: 250 mm
• Length: 1000 mm
• Valve-ready configuration for connection to external thermostatic or manual valve
• Intended for hydronic central heating systems
• Suitable for underwindow mounting and replacement installations

How to use

Install the radiator on a suitable load-bearing wall or bracket at the desired mounting height, typically under a window for optimal convective flow. Connect the supply and return pipes to the radiator using an appropriate thermostatic or manual valve and compatible fittings (valve not included). After connection, bleed the radiator to remove trapped air and test the system for leaks. Adjust the attached thermostatic valve to the required room temperature or use the system controls to regulate flow and heating output.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, position the radiator with unobstructed airflow above it and leave space in front of the convector fins. Use a compatible thermostatic valve to optimize room temperature control and energy efficiency. When replacing an old unit, verify pipe centre distances and mounting bracket compatibility prior to installation.
