Radiator Stelrad RENO COMPACT type 22 550x1400 mm 2260 W

Stelrad RENO COMPACT type 22 radiator, size 550 × 1400 mm with a rated heat output of 2260 W, is a compact panel radiator designed for central heating systems. The unit features two convector panels and two front panels (type 22 construction) to deliver consistent, convective heat transfer suitable for heated rooms in residential or commercial properties. It is intended for wall-mounted installation and can be used as a direct replacement for existing radiators of the same dimensions or as part of a new heating installation where the stated output meets the room heat loss requirements.

Advantages

The radiator combines a compact footprint with a comparatively high heat output for its height, offering a practical solution where wall space is limited. Its type 22 construction—with dual convector and front panels—improves convective performance and allows more efficient circulation of warmed air. The product is compatible with standard central heating connections and is suitable for both retrofit and new-build applications, providing reliable operation when installed according to local plumbing and heating standards.

Suitable for

• Heating living rooms, bedrooms and offices in residential buildings
• Replacement of existing wall-mounted radiators with matching dimensions
• Commercial spaces with medium heat demand where wall-mounted panel radiators are preferred
• New central heating installations requiring a compact radiator with a 2260 W output

Key specifications

• Type: double convector, double front panel (type 22)
• Dimensions: height 550 mm × length 1400 mm
• Rated heat output: 2260 W (given operating conditions)
• Mounting: wall-mounted installation
• Material and finish: corrosion-resistant steel panels with factory finish suitable for indoor use
• Connection orientation: standard side or bottom connections for central heating systems

How to use

Install the radiator on a suitable load-bearing wall using appropriate brackets and fixings; follow local building regulations and manufacturer guidance for bracket spacing and mounting height. Connect the radiator to the central heating system using compatible valves and pipework, ensuring correct flow and return connections and proper alignment. After installation, purge air from the radiator using the bleed valve and check for leaks. Adjust thermostat valves as required to achieve the desired room temperature and verify that the system pressure meets the heating system specification before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance and safety, have the radiator installed by a qualified heating engineer. Use thermostatic radiator valves to control room temperatures and improve energy efficiency. Regularly check for airlocks and bleed radiators at the start of each heating season; inspect pipework and connections periodically for corrosion or leaks.
