Hi,
She who must be obeyed has asked me to change the radiator for one that's a bit more stylish in a room I am re-decorating, the problem is I can't find one the same size - I can get 100mm shorter and longer but not the same - not even a bog standard one - does anyone know where I can get one? The rad is a double, the size is 1900 long x 600 high I am not too concerned about the height - this can be bigger - but the pipes go into a concrete floor - so I don't want to have to mess with them. I've considered the long rad tails (from Screwfix) as a last option - but visually this is not good. Thanks, kev |

It'll look better if you get the next size larger and use carefully bent 'S' shaped pipe to extend from the existing ones. -- *The beatings will continue until morale improves * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
