Which valve fits your pipework?
Straight inline valves: consider these when the pipework approaches in line with the radiator connection.
Angled valves: consider these when the pipework needs a 90° turn into the connection, such as pipework coming from the wall.
Check pipe diameter, connection direction and valve dimensions with your installer. Pipe position alone does not confirm compatibility. View valve specifications →
