FAQs
What is the purpose of a thermostatic radiator valve (TRV)?
A TRV regulates the heat output of a radiator based on the surrounding air temperature, helping to maintain a consistent and comfortable temperature while saving energy.
Can I install the Inta I-THERM valve myself?
If you are comfortable with basic plumbing, you can install the valve. However, if you are unsure, it's best to consult a qualified plumber.
How do I adjust the temperature?
Rotate the numbered dial on the thermostatic head. The higher the number, the warmer the room will be.
What does the frost protection setting do?
The frost protection setting opens the valve slightly to allow heat to flow through the radiator, preventing the pipes from freezing.
How do I clean the Inta I-THERM valve?
Wipe the valve with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
What should I do if my radiator is still cold after installing the valve?
Check that the water supply valve is open, the TRV is set to a higher temperature, and that the radiator is bled to remove any airlocks. If problems persist, consult a professional.
Where can I find the product's technical specifications?
You can find technical specifications on the manufacturer's website or in the product documentation.
Troubleshooting
Radiator not heating up.
Check that the valve is set to a higher temperature and that the radiator's supply valve is open. Also, ensure the system is properly bled to remove any trapped air.
Valve making a rattling noise.
This could be due to air in the system or a faulty cartridge. Try bleeding the radiator. If the noise persists, consult a qualified plumber.
The temperature is not regulating correctly.
Make sure the thermostatic head is not obstructed by furniture or curtains. If the problem continues, the valve may need replacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Installation: The valve is designed to be fitted in any orientation and with water flowing in either direction, simplifying installation. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free. Consult the manufacturer's instructions for detailed installation steps.
- Compatibility: This is a 15mm angled thermostatic radiator valve. It's important to verify compatibility with your existing radiator and pipework before installation.
