What is the smallest height radiator?
KARTEL SINGLE PANEL CONVECTOR RADIATOR – 300 x 400mm With a single grooved front panel, this 300(H)mm x 400(W)mm radiator is the smallest in the range.
Which radiators are best for heat output?
Central heating radiators These radiators have the highest heat output and greatest heating efficiency of all plumbed radiator styles, making them a popular choice in many homes.
Do radiators have to be a certain height off the floor?
Radiators should typically be mounted so that the foot of the radiator is positioned a minimum of 150mm from the floor. The height of nearby floorboards could influence how high a radiator is fitted, if only for aesthetic reasons.
Should radiator be above skirting board?
If the pipework is coming from the wall, the pipes should never penetrate through the skirting. The radiator should move higher on the wall so that the pipes come through the wall above the skirting’s.

Do New radiators make a difference?
Improvements in Radiators It’s easy to assume that radiators made decades ago are less efficient, but studies have shown that a new radiator can be as much as twice as efficient as even a twenty year old equivalent.
Are double panel radiators more efficient?
For standard sized and large rooms, double panel radiators are by far the most efficient. Single panel radiators emit less heat because they have less surface area for the heat to come from.
How high above the floor should a radiator be?
150mm
Radiators should typically be mounted so that the foot of the radiator is positioned a minimum of 150mm from the floor. The height of nearby floorboards could influence how high a radiator is fitted, if only for aesthetic reasons.
Why do radiators go under windows?
This is something most of us learn in school and it helps to explain why radiators are located underneath windows. As the hot air rises from the radiator, the cold air that is coming in through the window pushes against the warm air, circulating it around the room much more efficiently.
How close to the floor Can a radiator be?
What height are radiators off the floor?
Typically, standard radiators are mounted so that the bottom of the radiator is 150mm from the floor.
