What is the purpose of the Black Nickel Radiator Air Vent and Blanking Plug?
The air vent allows for the release of trapped air within the radiator system, ensuring optimal heating efficiency and preventing cold spots. The blanking plug seals unused openings, maintaining system pressure and preventing leaks.
Are these components compatible with all radiators?
These components typically feature a standard 1/2" BSP male thread, making them compatible with many radiators. However, it's essential to verify the thread size and specifications of your specific radiator model to ensure proper fit.
How do I maintain these components?
Regularly inspect the air vent and blanking plug for signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks. If you notice any issues, address them promptly to maintain the efficiency of your heating system.
How do I install the air vent and blanking plug?
-
Preparation: Turn off your central heating system and allow the radiator to cool completely.

Drainage: Place a container or cloth beneath the valve to catch any residual water.
-
Removal: Using the appropriate tool (such as a radiator key or spanner), carefully unscrew the existing air vent or blanking plug by turning it counterclockwise.

Installation: Apply PTFE tape to the threads of the new component to ensure a watertight seal. Screw the new air vent or blanking plug into place by turning it clockwise until secure. Avoid overtightening to prevent damage.
