Installation of the IMI HEIMEIER Eclipse 300 Thermostatic Radiator Valves is a relatively straightforward process. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you with the installation:
1. Before starting the installation, make sure you have all the necessary tools and materials, including a pipe cutter, pipe wrench, and thread seal tape.
2. Shut off the heating system and drain any water from the radiator you are working on.
3. Remove the existing manual valve from the radiator by loosening the union nut connecting it to the radiator.
4. Clean the threads on the radiator and apply thread seal tape to ensure a watertight connection.
5. Attach the IMI HEIMEIER Eclipse 300 Thermostatic Radiator Valve to the radiator by screwing it onto the threaded connection. Use a pipe wrench to tighten it securely.
6. Connect the other end of the valve to the heating system pipe using a union nut. Again, apply thread seal tape to the threads before making the connection.
7. Once the valve is securely attached, open the lockshield valve on the opposite side of the radiator to allow water to flow through the system.
8. Turn on the heating system and check for any leaks around the valve. If you notice any leaks, tighten the connections further or consult a professional plumber.
9. Adjust the desired temperature on the thermostatic head of the valve according to your preference.
10. Finally, bleed any air trapped in the radiator by using the air vent valve located at the top of the radiator.
Please note that these instructions are a general guide, and it is always recommended to consult the specific installation manual provided by IMI HEIMEIER for detailed instructions and any specific requirements for your particular installation.
