Screwfix Rads
 

I was sure that Screwfix did rads longer than 1200 but other than the
300mm ones which can be got up to 1400 I can only see 1200 as being
the longest .
Can anyone suggest an alternative source for rads with a comparable
price?

We got a good supplier through these people
http://www.discountedheating.co.uk They have been around for a few years
now, and have some good deals. Worth a try, eh.

Any plumbers merchant.
I bought mine from a small merchant who didn't have room to
hold any stock, and since they ordered direct from the
manufacturer, you could have any size the manufacturer did
next day (or same day if you ordered before 8am). You could
have any other size made up in about a week. I ordered some
triple panel ones with bottom entry connectors (didn't want
valves and pipework visible on the sides). I thought they
would be special order, but they are standard items at the
manufacturers and were delivered next day.

Places like screwfix tend to pick a limited number of sizes
to stock, far fewer than the manufacturers routinely make.

You know, I quoted this morning for a 1500x600 rad. I expected them to
be in the Screwfix book, but as you say, they only go up to 1200.
These look to be around the cheapest from a quick Gooogle:

Though I'd think my local (large) Plumbers Merchant (Pochins in
Leicester) would be cheaper.

Currently looking for radiators too and I can confirm, this outfit appears
to be cheapest I've found for the wider sizes. Places like Screwfix and B&Q
do offer much cheaper radiators at smaller sizes but as the original poster
found out, they don't do the big ones.

Cheers, Rob.

Their website is a bit weird. Tried to look at Gerkros 500mm High Double
Convector Radiators and it listed everything except radiators!

Though I'd think my local (large) Plumbers Merchant (Pochins in

I'm going to see what price the plumber can get before comitting.

Been there, done that and the answer is "No"... as another posted
http://www.discountedheating.co.uk is the best I've found and they are ~20%
more expensive than ScrewFix & B&Q. But these guys shift big bulk and
probably get excellent discounts.

eBay is even worse!!
