A premium gloss white vertical designer radiator delivering 4,309 BTU from a slim 560mm body. 1800mm height, single panel construction, 52mm depth, 26.1kg. 5 year Kartell UK manufacturer guarantee. All fixings included.
The largest single panel option in the Boston range, the Kartell K-Rad Boston 1800 x 550mm White Vertical Single Designer Radiator is the natural choice when you need maximum heat from a single vertical unit. The 560mm body delivers a powerful 4,309 BTU (1,263W) from a slim 52mm profile — ideal for large living rooms, family rooms and open-plan kitchen-diners. The gloss white finish keeps even large rooms feeling bright and modern. SKU: BOS1800-550W.
At 1800mm tall and 560mm wide, this is the biggest single-panel Boston in the range — the natural choice when one vertical unit needs to deliver maximum heat for a large room.
The 9-tube full-height single panel delivers enough heat for large living rooms, family rooms and open-plan kitchen-diners up to approximately 19m² with average insulation.
Despite the dramatic full-height, wider proportions, the single panel construction sits just 52mm from the wall — preserving floor space and giving a clean modern profile.
The premium gloss white powder coat (RAL 9003) is durable, scratch-resistant and brightens interiors — the natural choice for large family rooms, hallways and open-plan kitchen-diners.
The 26.1kg weight reflects the solid mild steel construction — this is a serious designer radiator, with proper heft and presence in the room.
Full coverage on the genuine 5 year guarantee — registered direct with Kartell UK in your name. This is the original Kartell-branded Boston, not a re-branded copy.

When to use: Pipework rises vertically from the floor and connects to the side tappings of the radiator. This is the most common UK installation type for vertical radiators.
When to use: Pipework rises directly from the floor into the bottom tappings in a straight vertical line.
When to use: Pipework rises behind the radiator and connects to the bottom tappings at an angle, giving a clean concealed finish.

Yes — for typical UK large living rooms or open-plan kitchen-diners up to 19m² with average insulation, 4,309 BTU is generally sufficient as the sole heat source. For very large rooms (20m²+) or poorly insulated properties, you may need a second radiator or a double-panel version — use the BTU Calculator above to confirm.
Allow approximately 1900mm tall x 660mm wide total wall space — the radiator itself is 1813mm tall and 560mm wide, plus clearance for valves and pipework. Pipe centres are 510mm.
This radiator projects 52mm from the wall — one of the slimmest profiles in the Boston single panel range, helping preserve floor space and giving a clean, unobtrusive appearance even at this larger size.
No — valves are sold separately. We recommend matching Kartell K-Design White or Chrome TRV twin packs for visual consistency. See the Valves tab above for angled, straight or corner options depending on your pipework.
Yes — this is the original Kartell-branded Boston (BOS1800-550W, EAN 5060168223791) supplied through Kartell UK’s authorised distribution. Some retailers re-brand the same Kartell radiator under their own house name; we don’t. You get the genuine Kartell guarantee, registered in your name.
Yes — the Boston operates well at lower flow temperatures typical of modern air-source heat pump systems. At heat pump flow temperatures (often Delta T30 or T40) the BTU output will be lower than the quoted Delta T60 figure — call 01282 429061 for sizing advice.
