1900 long Radiator - Anyone Know Who Makes One??
Hi,
Getting desperate! Just as it says above – anyone know who or where I can get one? Ideally 600 high double convector 1800 or 2000 appear to be common sizes – but I don’t want to modify the piping if possible. Thanks, Kev |

In my experience (assuming identical ones aren't available) you always ends up modifying the piping. Modifying by 25mm is often more difficult than modifying by 100mm! -- Bob Mannix (anti-spam is as easy as 1-2-3 - not) |

There lies the problem - pipes go into a solid (concrete?) floor and
boss (wife) does not want to see bent 'S' shaped pipe to extend from the existing. Kev Can't you get the shorter one and pad the ends out with a couple if tailpieces each end?.. -- Tony Sayer |

Anyone know of any tails this long? Kev |
