Designer Radiators

Does anyone have any opinions or experience on these?

Comparing the equivalent sized standard radiator these seem to have a lower output but I don’t know how big of an issue that is?

It’s horizontal double panels we’re looking at. Our rooms are pretty standard sized, nothing open plan or anything like that.

I don’t want to change to these and then feel the room doesn’t get as warm Sad

Use an online calculator. It'll tell you how many BTUs you need to keep the room warm. Then, you can buy appropriate rads.

Are you talking about these?
I have them nad they heat really well. We did calculate how big and how many we need for the room obviously so it's all ok.
Actually none of them was ever on full blast since our house is insulated.

My limited experience is that 'designer' radiators includes a really wide range. 'Standard' rads are really quite dull to look at. Check the BTUs of any radiator and you can compare. We have column radiators downstairs and standard upstairs. We'll see come winter whether the column rads are as effective but the BTU output is meant to be pretty comparable .

Didn't you post about radiators a couple of days ago?

I’ll give the calculators a go, thanks.

It’s those bit more oval Ninja rather than flat on the front.

No, no other radiator post from me Decor Smile

This is a good website, www.bestheating.com/radiators.html use the BTU calculator then just select rads in the filter within the range you need 👍
We also recently used www.hotinteriors.co.uk .....bought a beautiful mirror radiator in the sale, SO pleased with it and the customer service was amazing, so I'd highly recommend them.

Thanks Spicy! That first one is probably where we’ll get them :)
