Default Heating question

The heat sources are located in proximity to the greatest heat loss
areas i.e. windows so that the room heats more evenly, it has nothing to
do with condensation or mold. Move the radiator to an interior wall and
you're far more likely to have a steep temperature gradient from over
hot by the radiator to bloody chilly by the window.

I agree with the first statement, but not the second. Condensation,
mold, and mildew problems regularly appear in window areas when people
try to block warm dry air from flowing over windows, and is especially
a problem with single paned and aluminum pane windows.
