SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Radiators are hot when in use, and as such, present a risk of burns to users on prolonged contact. The temperature of a
radiator is dependent on the temperature of the system water, as set by the system installer or user. Installers and users
should ensure that those who may come into close proximity to hot radiators are aware of the risk of burns. Installers
and users should take all necessary steps to minimise the risks of burns. If the risk is significant, consideration should be
given to installing low surface temperature radiators, or to placing guards in front of the radiators.
For the correct installation of radiators it is essential that the fixing of the radiator is carried out in such a way
that it is suitable for intended use AND predictable misuse. A number of elements need to be taken into
consideration including the fixing method used to secure the radiator to the wall, the type and condition of the wall
itself, and any additional potential forces or weights that may happen to be applied to the radiator, prior to
finalising installation.
IN ALL CASES IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT A SUITABLY QUALIFIED
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER OR SIMILAR TRADESPERSON CARRIES OUT THE INSTALLATION.

Myson products are designed to be installed by professional tradespeople. Myson instructions are meant to be thorough;
however it is assumed that the installer has the appropriate technical knowledge related to building codes, standard trade
practices, and proper use of the tools of the trade. Should a homeowner without such knowledge or skill take it upon him/

DESIGN AND LAYOUT CONDITIONS
Myson
Column
Radiators should only be used with a
properly sized
recirculation pump
closed loop hydronic heating system
.
Please consult national and local codes for specific restrictions that may be imposed on your installation. Position your radiator
away from your
circulator pump to avoid either excess pressure that could force water out the air vent or excess suction that
could draw air into the system. The preferred positioning for the
Column
radiator is below a window where it can minimize
downdrafts from glazed areas.
