INTRODUCTION

The Myson Décor Radiator will keep any room in comfort and style. We at Myson Inc. thank you for your purchase of the Décor Radiator. Each radiator combines Myson’s compact design and advanced steel construction with a durable baked epoxy/polyester enamel powder coat finish. Myson’s sleek styling and thorough testing provides attractiveness and dependability. Myson’s goal is to assure the highest performance, quality, reliability and outstanding customer service.

CAUTION Step 1 Read this entire instruction manual thoroughly before beginning installation. Step 2 To ensure full efficiency of your Myson Décor Steel Panel Radiator, please follow all

the instructions carefully observing the caution notes for each step.

Step 3 Failure to follow these instructions will invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.

APPLICATION

Myson radiators are only for use in recirculating closed loop hydronic-heating systems. These radiators are not recommended for gravity systems. Myson Décor Radiators are designed to work with a maximum working pressure of 66 PSI and no more then 230 degrees F water temperature.

DO NOT USE STEAM IN THESE RADIATORS.

DESIGN AND LAYOUT CONDITIONS

Myson Décor Radiators should only be used with a 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 Décor radiator is below a window where it can minimize downdrafts from glazed areas. Myson Radiators may be hot to the touch. Generally the surface temperature is at 10-12 degrees Fahrenheit below system water temperature. Care must be taken to consider room occupant’s ability to sense or understand that radiators may be hot. Should radiator surface or system water temperature be an issue, please contact MYSON at 1-800-698-9690 for information on the MYSON LST radiators. LST (Low Surface Temperature) Radiators can be a viable solution where temperatures are a safety concern.

Rough-in

Rough-ins given are for MYSON TRV and Control Valves only. Valve specifications vary by manufacturer. Myson will not be responsible for damage or repair of property for rough-in with non-Myson Valves. Prior to committing pipe work behind finish floor or wall materials, consult Myson for assistance at 1-800-698-9690.

Dimensions are in inches. All valves are by MYSON and are 1/2” thread engagement in a vertical pattern. For two LKD valves, use LKD and TRV dimensions.

Step 1 (A) Determine supply and return pipe location for your size radiator. Step 2 (B) Place the hangers in the center of the mounting bracket NOTE: The hanger needs to be in the center of the bracket to allow for variance. NOTE: Install the plastic inserts on the hangers. NOTE: (C) The radiators must be a minimum of 4” off the floor. Step 3 (D) Measure the distance from the bottom of the radiator to the hanger and add 4” for step 3. Step 4 (E) Measure the distance from the bottom of the radiator to the top hanger and add 4” for step 3. Step 5 (F) Measure the distance from the center of the supply or return pipe to the center of the hanger. NOTE: Use a level to mark the hanger locations on the wall. NOTE: Attach the hangers with suitable hardware. Adequate blocking is recommended to

support the weight of the radiators.

Nylon shipping plugs are meant solely for keeping paint from radiator threads during the painting process. Failure to remove plastic plugs and install the stainless metal plugs can result in significant property damage if heating system is run with plastic plugs in place.

Step 1 Remove all plastic shipping plugs on the radiator. Step 2 Before proceeding clean tappings of any foreign material. Step 3 Install air vent plug. Step 4 Install blanking plugs.

NOTE: See page 6 for alternate

valve and plug locations.

CAUTION: Do not over tighten and do not use a pipe wrench on ground joint. Step 7 Cut the copper pipe to a correct length. NOTE: The pipe must fit all the way up to the stop in the valve body (approx. 1” into

the valve body).

Step 8 Place compression nut on copper pipe. Step 9 Place compression ring on copper pipe. CAUTION: DO NOT DAMAGE THE COMPRESSION RING.

Valve Installation

Myson products are designed to be installed by professional trades people. 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/herself to attempt the installation, Myson will not be responsible for any damages, injuries or unsatisfactory performance of the Myson product used.

NOTE: MYSON products have BSP male and female threads. BSP threads are a straight running thread NOT tapered like NPT. Myson Radiator Valves are designed with BSP threads at radiator

side and NPT or compression connections to system piping.

Step 1 Clean all threaded surfaces (both external and internal).

Step 2 Apply teflon tape or pipe dope to the male threads, leaving the first thread exposed. If using

pipe dope, also apply to the female threads of the radiator. Common practice to seal BSP threads is to use heavy duty teflon tape, such as is used to seal gas pipe fittings, or anaerobic pipe dope.

Step 3 Using accepted trade practices assemble and wrench tighten fittings until proper

alignment is obtained.

Failure to flush system of debris and flux may cause premature radiator failure, which

can result in leaks and property damage NOT covered under the Myson Warranty.

SYSTEM START-UP

Step 1 Fill and vent the system. Step 2 Run the system for two (2) hours at full temperature with all radiator valves in the

open position.

Step 3 Shut off and drain the system while the water is still hot. Step 4 Refill the system. Step 5 Reheat, vent, and balance the system. Step 6 Once the Décor Radiator is filled with water the system should be left filled. Step 7 System should be checked for leaks on seasonal start-ups. Leaks must be repaired

as automatic system fill valves allow fresh water/oxygen into the system attacking radiators internally.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING

1 Once operating, avoid the introduction of fresh water and oxygen to the system to

prevent corrosion.

2 An occasional wiping with a damp cloth using a non-abrasive detergent can protect

the finish of your Myson Décor Panel Radiator.

3 The use of abrasive cleaners will damage the surface of your radiator and void the

manufacturer’s warranty.

System Start-Up & Maintenance

ADDITIVES

Treatment of the primary water is not usually required in a properly designed system.

Treatment may be necessary if either:

1 Local waters are known for their content of corrosive material or if high bacterial levels

are present.

2 If there is a possibility that the system may be idle during a prolonged period of freezing

temperatures, system should be either drained or protected with antifreeze. If either

corrosion inhibitors or anti-freeze is to be used, it should be added AFTER the system

has been flushed in the final stages. Use only anti-freeze suitable for potable water.

Do not put heating system into operation without checking for leaks with the system up to

full operating temperature. Leaks can appear in a heated system that were not noticeable

with a cold system or air pressure check.
