Do you recognise this radiator (photos inc.)?

Feb 04, 2013 15 Replies

Need to replace 3 radiators, and want them to match the existing. They are round top ones and metric (I don't want to touch the pipework).



I tried to see if I can find a maker's stamp, but haven't managed to. Do they have them? and if so, where?



Photos of the one that I want to match are here:

were installed around years ago if that's a clue, and I already know that they are not Quinn (anyone needs a spare?)...

See below - they are NOT Quinn (I ordered one last week, and they don't look anything like mine)...

Seen these too - they look very similar (if not identical), but are not metric...

sorry, missed that. Got excited when I spotted a similar radiator. ;-)

At least you were just excited. I got so excited last week when I spotted the very one that I am now the proud owner of a radiator that is of no use to me...

How about Myson Premier HE? If you check the technical specs you'll see = that the bleed valve looks very similar (or identical).

I had a look at he same page earlier, and I agree - it looks identical as far as I can tell. They are imperial though...

They also have a metric version - but I wasn't sure it was the one.

is a 2-tap and a 4-tap?

I think that refers to the number of potential connection points, namely just two at the bottom or two at the top and two at the bottom.

Nowt wrong with Imperial.

Thanks a lot for the info and the rest.

I think I'll order the metric ones and hope for the best. It is just a shame that no one local keeps any stock so you can see them before you buy.

I was looking at replacement rads last week and one thing I did notice about Quin,Myson and Stelrad was that the guarantee was only ten years.It`s fifteen years with the Kudox ones from Screwfix.

Looks identical to one I got from stock at Plumbcenter, but I might just have been lucky with the size I wanted.

Thanks. I tried two of their local branches, and they had no roundtops in stock at all.

Nah. Never seen it before. Honest guv.
