Ordering valves in larger quantities? We may be able to offer a better price on orders of five sets of valves or more - contact us for our quotation.

We have selected our range of radiator valves with particular attention to matching the styles of our heated towel rails, column radiators and cast iron radiators, so we offer only quality brass radiator valves, in a variety of finishes, including polished brass to show off the material the valve is made from, or plated metal finishes such as hardwearing chrome, the more subtle nickel, or antique gold - a finish intended to provide the effect of a brass finish without the need for constant cleaning. Indeed, antique gold finishes shouldn't be polished; we recommend that antique gold items should only ever be cleaned lightly with a soft damp cloth.

Though our valves are available in many different styles, they all operate on one of two basic principles;

Manual radiator valves allow you to directly control the heat in a room by turning the knob on the valve to allow more or less of your central heating system's fluid into the radiator. For more heat, open the valve, for less heat, close it.

Thermostatic radiator valves include a heat sensor; this is set to the temperature you would like the room to be at. After this, the valve will open or close itself automatically to maintain the set temperature in the room; if the temperature drops (for example, as night falls outside) the valve will open to allow in more hot water, bringing the room back up to the desired temperature - without any further action from you!
The reverse is also true; if the room gets too warm, the thermostatic valve will reduce the flow into the radiator to bring the room back down to the desired temperature.
Being more complicated, thermostatic valves cost more to manufacture, so are usually more expensive than equivalent manual valves. There is an interesting discussion on the BBC website about thermostatic radiator valves .

Most of our valves are intended to fit onto 15mm copper pipe and screw into 1/2" BSP radiator inlets (this is the standard size for the vast majority of British radiators, though 3/4" BSP fittings are seen on some gravity-fed systems, and older cast-iron radiators). All radiators and towel rails for sale from SMR Bathrooms have 1/2" BSP inlets unless otherwise specified. If you're looking to buy valves for existing radiators and are uncertain as to what type of inlets your radiators have, check with your installer. We do have some valves which can fit 3/4" BSP radiator inlets - see our "Traditional Brass Radiator valves" and "Victorian Crosshead Radiator valves" sections.

Our valves are not intended to fit microbore pipes, and would need adaptors before they could be used with a microbore system - check with your installer if you're uncertain what types of pipes are in use in your home.
