Hi have you installed electric vertical radiators by Electriq? Do you have any videos on that? Just wondering if I can do it myself or do I need to hire a qualified electrician?
Great video mate, thanks! I'm gonna use a couple of feet with mine (sadly) as my wall is skinny and the radiator weighs an absolute ton! ps When are you gonna start ageing? You don't look any older than you did back in the Big Brother days!
If the flow is the wrong way round with this rad, is it OK to turn the rad around on the bracket to suit? I have this problem with this exact rad, not installed it yet but both front and back look identical!
Aint this the fella who used to screw in the last screw on the hinge of a newly fitted door and portray he'd done the complete install on that DIY show ????🤣🤣
Yes. Not many threads in some of em for the tails to screw into. You are correct Brian. The one in the video looks fine though. In fact it has o rings.
@@tomevans8749 the rad that I have didn't have many threads. Some rads are better. Mine just needed about thirty raps of ptfe. It's all good now. From memory there was about 8mm of thread in the radiator and it was a slack thread too.

Not sure but I'm sure it's gunna be the same method. We have other radiator and towel rail installation videos on our channel

Yes it should be okay! Just check the instructions and contact your supplier if you need any more help! Cheers!
Aint the radiator the wrong way? It says Outlet where the hot water is coming in from?
always refer to the instructions! Cheers
I’ve been told I should pay £130 more for some feet due to the weight of a triple column rad on plasterboard walls, but you’ve fitted this without?
You don't have to use them, but it just depends on your wall or where you are fitting it to, cheers

Clearly never been on a shoot worth us!
Stop hating. Appreciate peoples efforts
These rads leak like hell,you need at least twice as much ptf tape as usual.
they shouldn't do if installed correctly. cheers

I've got one that's leaking from the bottom outlet. Would you just recommend more PTFE tape or should I get some plumbers mate too?
