Thermostatic Radiator Valves - TRV's

Thermostatic Radiator Valves or TRVs are often fitted to radiators to maximise control of heat output dependent on the air temperature in the room. Thermostatic valves are connected to a radiator to control the flow of hot water into it. The heads of TRVs have a sensor which responds to the air temperature around them, as the room heats up, the TRV's sensor expands and pushes against a pin which closes the valve, reducing the amount of heat given out. the TRVs open as the room demands more heat, thus allowing more hot water into the radiator.

Once you have fitted thermostatic radiator valves you will have the mans to accurately maintain temperature in each room they are fitted. It is easy to see how TRVs are more energy efficient and will therefore save you money also. are relatively cheap and easy for a plumber to fit and of course thermostatic radiator valves will soon pay for themselves in savings on your heating expenditure.
