Radiator Valves

Trade Radiators provide an unrivalled selection of valves. From modern to traditional, copper to chrome, thermostatic to manual, no matter what type of radiator installation you have, we’ll have a set to suit your requirements. All our valves come with extensive guarantees and free delivery. 

You will find everything from valves, towel hangers and hooks here and you can always get advice on certain maintenance aspects from the team. Here at Trade Radiators, we try to make sure you can get everything you will need as quickly as possible and help you save money in the process. If you're looking to buy a radiator alongsde one of our available valves, be sure to check our wide range.

The type of valves you need depends on a number of factors like location, pipe entry and what you want your valve to do.

Types of valve we stock would include:

It is important to know the difference between angled and corner rad valves so you don’t make the mistake of buying the wrong type and delaying installation.

Most of us will have our pipes coming out of the floor and will need the valve to make a 90° connection with the radiator. If that’s the case for you, then a simple angled valve is what you’re looking for.

Corner valves are needed when your pipes come directly from the wall (not floor) and you need to make a horizontal 90° connection.

It all comes down to control. If you just want your radiator to come in and work at maximum efficiency, a simple manual valve does the job. When you want to control the level of heat it provides a room, a thermostatic valve is your best bet.

You’ll want a valve finish to match or compliment the radiator you’re installing. For example, a white one may not look right if you have black valves, and vice versa.

We provide rad valves in the following finishes:

Pipe sleeves are for anyone who wants their installation to look complete and as clean as possible.

Many customers find that the pipes from the floor are hard to clean, or get paint off of, and these sleeves provide a simple go around to having them look new without getting any pipework done.

There are two main brands we trust when it comes to reliable valves: West and Trade Direct.

West is a brand we have been stocking for years now and believe they make incredibly high-quality products for a great price.

Trade Direct is a brand the team at Trade Radiators created to give customers access to valve designs not frequently available in the UK.

The standard measurement for pipes in the UK is 15mm, and you will most likely need valves that size.

Some installations though will require different sized valves. That why we stock the following radiator valve sizes:

There’s no need to get confused or overwhelmed by the number of valves available. Before buying a product, we recommend reading our guide to choosing the right valve. It covers everything from size and entry type to pipework and finishes.

It all depends on the look of your installation and what you need it to do for you.

If you visit our radiator accessories section, you’ll find products like feet supports, radiator plugs, robe hooks and wall stays; all helping making every installation unique. 

Have a room with a certain size or shape, and you’re not sure what valves would fit in given the layout?

You can always shop for radiators by room and see if a particular one works in your bathroom, kitchen, hallway or anywhere in the home, before finding valves which will match.
