Radiator Stelrad PLANAR typ 22 600x1000 mm 1318 W

Stelrad PLANAR typ 22 600x1000 mm is a double-panel convector radiator designed for central heating systems. With two panels and two convector fins, it delivers a combination of convective and radiative heat transfer and is rated at 1318 W for the specified nominal temperature conditions. The model size 600 x 1000 mm fits typical wall installations in residential and commercial interiors where this heat output corresponds to the required room heating load.

Advantages

The double-panel, double-convector design increases surface area for efficient heat distribution and accelerates warm-air circulation without requiring additional fan assistance. Its flat front panels provide a contemporary appearance compatible with a range of interior styles while allowing easy cleaning. The radiator is manufactured to standard dimensions for straightforward replacement or installation and offers stable thermal performance when connected to a compatible central heating system.

Suitable for

• Living rooms and bedrooms in apartments or houses where the 1318 W output matches heat loss calculations
• Office spaces and small commercial premises requiring wall-mounted radiators with moderate-to-high output
• Replacement of existing typ 22 radiators with similar dimensions and connection layout

Key specifications

• Type: double-panel convector (typ 22)
• Nominal heat output: 1318 W (at standard test temperatures)
• Height: 600 mm
• Width: 1000 mm
• Heat transfer: combined convective and radiative
• Panel configuration: two panels with two convector fins
• Mounting: wall-mounted radiator for central heating systems

How to use

Install the radiator on a suitably prepared wall using appropriate brackets and fasteners following the manufacturer’s installation guidelines and local plumbing standards. Connect to the central heating circuit using compatible valves and pipework, ensuring the system is depressurised and drained before making connections. After installation, refill and vent the system to remove trapped air and verify the radiator warms evenly across its surface. Adjust thermostatic or manual valves to regulate room temperature according to comfort and efficiency needs.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, match the radiator’s rated output to the calculated room heat loss and use thermostatic radiator valves to control temperature. Maintain clear space in front of the radiator and avoid covering it with curtains or furniture to preserve convective airflow. Periodically bleed the radiator to remove air and inspect connections for leaks during commissioning and seasonal maintenance.
