Radiator question

4 years ago

Hi there,

Hope you're all ok! Could you please tell me the make of the radiator at all? Also could you please provide a quotation on the cost of bathroom design only?

Kind regards,

Lee

Hi

The towel rail is by Bisque - from their Alban range. We charge £300 per room for design work which is refunded should Eau undertake the build.

Regards

Radiator covers - yes or no?
Q
Comments (13)
We installed radiator covers in a Georgian house decorated in a traditional style. They covered modern, flat radiators and without doubt were a vast visual improvement. The space within the cover will get considerably hotter than the room so conventional thermostatic valves are no good. We used valves that had a heat sensor in the room not within the cover. I recall the covers were made from a fairly heavy duty MDF and whilst they did get quite hot they never warped. Using radiator covers probably means it takes longer to heat a room to a comfortable temperature but we didn’t notice an increase in fuel bills possibly because we often used open fires in the winter. Finally, the covers provided very useful shelf space (for appropriate objects!). Georgian houses don’t have window sills.

Small wall & awkward radiator!

Decor Books That's a wonderful radiator cover. Where is it from? Others in this stream have said that radiator covers reduce the heat in a room but I've heard others say it doesn't - the issue is that it takes longer to heat up a room. On that basis, I'm tempted to cover a radiator in my sitting room as even if I paint it it's intrusive and I could really do with the shelf above it to add interest below pictures.

Peeling Zinsser 123 on radiator

No worries 😉. Maybe the sugar soap is why it’s having a tendency to peel. No need to sand all the paint off, just a quick going all over and just enough to smooth the rough bits out. Damp wipe after sanding, microfibre cloths are great for this. The sanding should help to provide a key for the primer to stick although Zinsser 123 usually doesn’t need it but in this case I think it will help. When dry add another coat of primer then as said let dry for a day then final top coat/s. If you wanted to dry a different primer then maybe an all purpose automotive spray primer might work. I’d need to research that mind. Anyway Hope this works for you.

Where to place radiators
Q

thanks Daisy, I was thinking that between those doors would be one good place. I am stuck on the other. I was not sure about the wall near the window, as until I start living in it I'm not sure what that wall could be used for. In the design they placed a table there but I'm also thinking the table blocks the view. He also added bi fold doors but we actually have two sliding doors which have very slim profiles, so mostly glass. If I place a radiator on that wall then I lose the option of adding something like seating. I was thinking of adding a slim tall one near the door where the sofa is, so the slim part of the wall that door opens onto. But then you end up looking at a side view of the radiator if standing at the island. Maybe I am overthinking it.
