Radiator Stelrad COMPACT type 22 500x900 mm, heat output 1083 W

Radiator Stelrad COMPACT type 22 500x900 mm is a double-panel, double-convective panel radiator designed for central heating systems. With nominal heat output of 1083 W, this radiator provides consistent space heating for domestic and light commercial interiors. Its 500 x 900 mm dimensions suit rooms with moderate to large heat demand while maintaining a low-profile appearance that fits standard wall-mount installations and connects to conventional pipework and thermostatic valves.

Advantages

The Stelrad COMPACT type 22 offers efficient heat transfer through its two panels and two convection fins, producing reliable warmth with a compact depth. Its standardised connection options make installation straightforward in typical central heating layouts, and the radiator’s durable steel construction ensures long-term mechanical stability. Compatibility with thermostatic valves enables precise temperature control and can contribute to energy-efficient operation when used with a properly configured heating system.

Suitable for

• Residential rooms such as living rooms, bedrooms and hallways
• Small offices and commercial spaces requiring reliable central heating
• Replacement of existing panel radiators with similar footprint
• Installations using wall brackets and standard thermostatic valve connections

Key specifications

• Type: Double-panel, double-convective (type 22)
• Dimensions (HxW): 500 x 900 mm
• Nominal heat output: 1083 W (under standard test conditions)
• Material: Pressed steel panels with convector fins
• Mounting: Wall-mounted with standard brackets
• Connection: Standard central heating pipe connections suitable for thermostatic valves

How to use

Install the radiator on a prepared wall using appropriate brackets and fixings, ensuring correct alignment and secure attachment. Connect to the central heating system using standard pipework and install a thermostatic valve if temperature regulation is required. After connection, bleed the radiator to remove trapped air and check for leaks. Operate the heating system according to the boiler and control manufacturer’s instructions; adjust the thermostatic valve to achieve the desired room temperature.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, position the radiator on an external wall or under a window where heat loss is greatest, leave free space in front of the panel to allow convection, and use an appropriate-sized thermostatic valve to control room temperature efficiently. Periodic bleeding and inspection for corrosion or leaks will help maintain heat output and service life.
