Radiator positioning
 

I have a 3 storey house and the toilet on the ground floor is the only room
without a radiator. There is no way to connect onto the central heating
pipes on the ground floor so I will have to run two pipes down the pipe
chase from the first floor. I know I will need to attach a drain point to
this part of the system as the main drain point would not empty the water in
this radiator. Can anyone forsee any problems with me attaching a radiator
in this way?

No problem. All my downstrairs rads are connected this way. Although my
house is only 2 storeys, the ground floor has solid floors - so no space for
underfloor pipes. The heating is distributed between the floors, with a pair
of pipes dropping down to each rad - each with a drain point, of course.
