Pensotti Vertical V20 Panel Radiators

Specification, Operation and Maintenance

1. Routinely check for water leaks. 

2. An annual test of heating system water quality is required. Specifically a pH test to determine the  

water’s  corrosive potential.  

3. Systems with antifreeze must be tested annually for pH, flow point and freeze point. Follow the 

antifreeze and boiler manufacturers recommendation.

4. Heating system water treatment must be tested annually. Follow the chemical manufacturers 

recommendations.

5. Keep the external surfaces of the radiator clean using typical household cleaners and a soft rag.

6.

The use of abrasive cleaners will damage the radiator’s finish and void the warranty.

7. Vacuum dust and dirt from the radiator surfaces on a regular basis.

8. Touch up and nicks and scratches on the painted surfaces to minimize any surface rust from 

occurring.
