Column radiators - where to buy

8 replies

Hi All, i'm trying to spec and buy column radiators for installation in the next couple of weeks. I'm a bit lost at the number of different sites, and was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. the plumber isn't forthcoming about which is the best supplier, but all are rooms are spec'd and i just have to choose. Please help!

So far I've done Mr Central heating, and got almost what I want but the choice there seems more limited than some other sites (but website easiest to use).

We got Acova from Screfix. Very happy with everything.

Same as Jojo, Acova from Screwfix

I’ve got Acova column rads from Screwfix , white ones like this.Excellent and they actually kick out a good amount of heat, unlike the crap flat column ones my builders fitted . Got free valves as well. Really nice quality, think they come in a silver type colour too.

So that's a resounding yes for Acova - did you do the whole house? Or just downstairs for pretty ones. We need all new radiators, but I'm looking at £4k Shock

I'm also buying Screwfix ones, and am biting the bullet and doing the whole house, am looking at 3 k.....but I'll have them forever!

Acova here too. They are great. Had them for 5years. Remembering that I took my dad to B&Q on whatever week day they they give a discount to the over 65s when we bought them. Not sure if they still do this. It was 10 or 15% off so really helpful.

We need them urgently - house is big and old, moved in last week, and although boiler is new, radiators are a mess
