• Does anyone have any recommendations on where you can get help deciding what radiator will better suit a room? By that I mean, we've getting a woodburner installed and a 600x1700mm on one wall for the whole room (the room was knocked through by previous owners),
    the rad imo needs to be repositioned elsewhere to accommodate our sofas but not sure which option will be ideal

    1. reposition rad to a column rad on wall (adjacent to bay window) - however I don't see enough heat being produced for the room at all other times so will another one of the other side of the room (location needs to be determined however)

    2. ditch the bay window seat ideal and stick a bay window rad there inside - where is a good place to look for one (5 window bay)

    3. ditch the 2 sofas and go for a nice long 3 seater instead but wont providing enough seating when people come over

  • Hard to say without a pic…

  • You calculate the required radiator capacity by roughly working out the heat the room requires then matching your radiator/s to it. Look for the BTU ratings on each product. There are plenty of room calcs out there.

    One big floor standing rad should do. If you are fitting two in a room the room had better be bloody massive….

    Better, Fit wet underfloor heating - radiators shouldn’t determine room layout and furniture etc. and your future self will thank you.
