Thermostatic radiator valve Danfoss 013G6170 Chrome rotary control 8-28°C

The Danfoss 013G6170 thermostatic radiator valve with chrome rotary control provides temperature regulation for radiator heating systems. Designed for room-temperature control between 8 and 28 °C, the valve integrates a rotary adjustment mechanism in a chrome-plated housing and weighs approximately 160 g. It is compatible with standard radiator valve fittings and intended for manual, local control of room climate without electronic automation.

Advantages

The chrome finish offers corrosion resistance and a neutral aesthetic that fits a variety of interior styles. The rotary control delivers tactile, stepless adjustment across the 8–28 °C range for precise setpoint selection. Compact and lightweight construction simplifies handling during installation and maintenance. The mechanical thermostat principle provides stable temperature control without requiring external power.

Suitable for

• Residential radiators in flats and houses
• Small commercial spaces with radiator heating
• Retrofit or replacement of existing manual radiator valves
• Rooms where local, mechanical temperature control is preferred

Key specifications

• Control type: mechanical thermostatic valve with rotary knob
• Temperature range: 8–28 °C
• Finish: chrome-plated exterior
• Weight: approximately 160 g
• Mounting: compatible with standard radiator valve fittings (check connection type before installation)

How to use

Install the thermostatic valve on the radiator following the radiator and valve manufacturer instructions and ensure the system is depressurised before fitting. Rotate the chrome control knob to select the desired room temperature within the 8–28 °C scale; the internal temperature-sensitive element will modulate flow to maintain the setpoint. Regularly check for correct operation and bleed air from the radiator as needed to ensure efficient heat transfer.

Recommendations

For best results, position the thermostat where it senses ambient room temperature (avoid direct sunlight, drafty locations, or placement behind curtains). If replacing an older valve, confirm compatibility with the radiator connection and, if in doubt, consult a qualified heating technician for installation and system balancing.
