Radiators should be placed on an outside wall, below a window if possible. Check the installation location
and determine if adequate space is available to accommodate the panel size chosen.
Pensotti recommends the use of the bottom supply and return connections. These connections are
located near the end of the radiator. The return connection is 1 3/8” from the end and the supply is 2”
further in towards the radiator center. This connection location will accept both isolation valves w/bypass.
Pensotti panel radiators are reversible, dependent upon which side is facing the rooms’ interior the supply
and return connections may be located either on the left or right hand side. Be sure the proper connection
location is selected before drilling piping holes.
See the above figure for additional dimensions and rough-in information.
The optional side connections may be used in lieu of the preferred bottom connections. Care must be
taken when using these connections. In some cases, the integral thermostatic/flow-setter valve will be by-
passed causing continued, uncontrolled heating of the radiator. The plugs removed from the side
connections must be installed in the unused bottom connections before filling the system with water.
Pensotti valves are not compatible with the side connections.
See the ‘Piping Options’ section of this manual for more information.
