2. Why underfloor system is not the top rating? There is good thermal mass giving a long lasting for heating, less energy needs to feed as radiators. But infrared spells from this heating go directly to selling but not to lower space of premises. No good convection. Can increase blood pressure if the temperature is not acceptable for you. And another important is the surface glazed or soft (tiles, timber ect.) giving different waves maybe it's not for us. 3. Wall heating system. Same concept underfloor heating just in the walls. Benefits. Can run low and high temperatures. Can design with different angles to heat direct another surfaces true infrared spells. Wall panels never heat the selling opposite underfloor heating. Panels can plastered with clay plaster. Fits in any design. One panel can be installed between 2 rooms. Infrared radiant heat heats not just the premises, but makes a comfortable feeling for all who is alive (humans, plants ect.) The infrared rays were used from ancient times… There is no better feeling than a very cold day, sun-rays going true your body and you cannot feel the cold even if it is windy, the feeling that you get is like someone giving you more energy to your body, – this is an infrared heat. The infrared radiant heat are different, have different wavelengths, heat spectrum changes when the heat goes true different material. For example, heat passes through metal, cement bricks or concrete, natural stones, glass or clay heat spectrum are changes to different waves. The most positive human beings are accepting radiate heat from the clay. The clay has the same heat spectrum as human beings. Radiant heat from the clay stoves or any clay heaters does not only heat or provides comfort, but also has healing properties. Its the same when medics heal us through infrared. More info available just send us short mesage.

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.

Round mirror or rectangular?

Thanks for your help Minnie and Misha, you are kind! Laura Ashley has a big mirror that might be ok ? Constance? can't add the image... We have shelves on the TV wall opposite the sofa - see photo. We have one more box to go above TV which is still drying! Not as deep as the speaker shelves but same height. I need to swap/spread the books around too to mix the colours over the sea print. (I have sent so many to the charity shop) I think you are right, there is no real need of shelf above radiator if we go for big and round mirror. It would be quite a strong design but is hopefully balanced by the TV cabinet etc. My first thought was for a round mirror near the lamp on the TV cupboard but husband complains he will be looking at himself all night. So there is a gap I had not planned. Not sure what to put there? Any ideas? Thanks so much for your help.

To follow on from some useful posts here: BTU calculation is absolutely your starting point. Better to oversize the rad rather than undersize, especially if you are using a modern condensing boiler that runs at lower temps for greater efficiency. So make sure that the BTU output quoted for the rad is at the temp you will have the boiler set to. A Pro like FR above can give you this info. We used Revive Radiators' steel column rads throughout the house. Being steel, as opposed to cast, they can be tall, and come in a 1500 size, 1200 size as well as the standard 1800mm. We actually have them in 2000 in the pic below. Ordered from mrcentralheating.co.uk who are helpful and reliable (i've used them in all three of my renovations). The rads have been fitted in my flat for over 10 years now and perform perfectly, so they have been tested. I'd definitely go with one tall rad, as it will free up floor/wall space for other stuff, like a feature chair or table, plants on the floor during the summer etc. Not a great pic, but you can see a 2metre tall, 3 column variant in lacquered raw steel finish on the wall of our new house next to the living room door. Behind, in the hallway, is a white, horizontal variant. The ugly plastic device on the valves are Honeywell's Evohome TRV controllers, which I cannot recommend highly enough (apart from the plasticky design), for temp control for each room individually.
