Tips:
l
Always plan to pipe directly into the radiator. “U” shapes
hould be avoided. Always check your piping scheme in
s
advance to be sure of clearance from joists, etc.
l
Use all of the K-12 brackets provided with each radiator.
l
Place 1 bracket 6” in from each end, and equally space the rest.
l
Mount bracket on studs whenever possible (use appropriate
method for non-stud mounting).
l
Mount radiators 3” from the floor for optimum efficiency, ease
of vacuuming, and pr
oper trim cover fit. However a minimum
of 1” between radiator and finished floor is permissible.
l
Be sure to install leveling bolt (K-45) prior to piping radiator.
Vertical Covers
Piping: Each radiator may be piped eight different ways.
This should allow for the most efficient and most attractive installation.

Tips:
l
Piping should be kept to a minimum and should be planned to
match the standard trims.
l
Always install the air vent (included) opposite the supply side
of the radiator.
l
Be sure to properly seal the flush plugs (included) in the
unused fittings (3/8” and 3/16” hex wrenches required).
l
Be sure to leave room for piping inside corners. You will need
two to three inches plus working room, minimum.

Tips:lHorizontal trims require a minimum of
2” overlap on the radiator for proper
fit.
l
It may be easier to purchase trims
after the radiators are installed, but
care should be taken to ensure that
all piping has been done with standard trim configurations in mind.
l
If you are unable to use standard
trims on an installation, please call for
custom trim options.
Horizontal Covers
System: Runtal will work well in both High and Low temperature closed loop systems.
Tips:
l
Always test the system with air at a maximum pressure of 50 PSI prior to wet testing.
l
Runtal baseboard may be used with fin-tube, but the fin-tube will perform better if the Runtal is at the end of the loop.
l
Runtal is compatible with cast iron baseboard and cast iron radiators.
l
In series installation: an individual loop should not exceed 30,000 Btuh or 7 radiators.
