  • Planning to move my radiators under the bay window, probably 3 of these in series, any potentially issues with that?

    Assuming not, short curtains or Roman blinds best for stemming heat loss? Curtains get my vote, also probably loads cheaper but the committee has floated the idea of blinds.

    This is what we did, no issue. They ended up quite tight for space in the curve so the pipework was a little bit fussier than ideal, but it all worked in the end.

  • I think I would like to do that too. Yours looked nice. I'll add it to the list.

  • Good to hear. From what I've read it's fine as long as you connect between tops and bottoms, so the water can circulate properly. I'll speak to the plumber about chrome tails between them.

    @villa-ru, that's my thinking, tuck behind the curtains in winter (although this may get annoying, I think I've just picked it up from my parents) and thinking about it, we just have small top openers in UPVC, so really don't want to obscure any airflow in summer.

  • Sorry if this sounds weird, but any chance I could see a photo of your radiators? Plumber is making reluctant noises saying it will end up looking crap, but I'm not convinced. Slightly crap would probably be a better outcome than rad behind the sofa.
