How Do I Turn On/of The Radiator Valves On A Towel Rail Radiator?

Humans tend to concentrate on things we don't understand. Since the bottom of your towel rail radiator has two valves, it is understandable if you're questioning why and what the valves are for. To quench your need for knowledge, we've dug deep into the towel radiator valve universe and crafted this short that explains the function of these valves and provides you with knowledge about how to turn on your towel rail radiator and its explanation.

Why do your towel radiator's valves come in pairs?

The two valves on your towel radiator allow you to manage the flow of hot water and the quantity of heat it emanates.

·   One valve controls the rate at which hot water enters the towel radiator.

·   The other valve regulates the rate at which hot water exits the radiator.

What is the purpose of two valves on your towel radiator?

One of the two valves on your towel radiator is often a lockshield valve, while the other is a wheel head valve or, in some instances, a TRV. The lockshield valve typically regulates the amount of hot water entering the radiator. The LSV controls the flow of hot water, which also ensures that the operation of the towel radiator won't compromise the efficiency of other radiators in your house.

 In contrast, the wheel-head valve controls the amount of heat the towel radiator emits. This valve on a towel radiator aims to regulate the radiator's temperature. Adjusting the wheel head valve counter-clockwise will increase the flow of water through the radiator, increasing its temperature. Similarly, moving it clockwise will reduce the temperature of the radiator.
