Looooooooong Radiators

Nov 11, 2005 8 Replies

Hi just a quick question.



I'm trying to replace an old radiator which is 1.7m + a bit long.



Does anyone know of a supplier I can go to either in the Stockport area or on t'internet that have this sort of length.



I've had a look at Screwfix, Travis Perkins and the longest I can find is 1.4M



I could move the pipes but would rather not.



I could use those variable tails at a pinch but would like to get somewhere near



Thanks in advance.

How about :-

do Stelrad up to 2m long, may be worth looking at avariety of lengths, when I bought two off them a while back the price / m of the radiators suddenly went up beyond a certain length, around 1.8m IIRC. Don't know why.....

Have you thought of combining a pair of rads side by side? A single pipe between them and you can keep the existing pipes coming through the floor.

Myson Premier SE is available at 1759mm long with heights of 690mm, 530mm,

390mm. As you say it is a bit over 1700mm (rather than exactly), you may well have exactly these sizes already.

Christian.

Harrison Mccarthy (Stockport!) seem to sell longer ones...

Plumb Center used to sell Stelrad too, and I expect they still do. I'm sure they'll have a branch near you. It's best to ring up for the price - you're more likely to be quoted the trade price over the phone, then they'll honour it when you go in.

Up to 3m avail at discounted heating (but look at the prices )

make their supply through Plumbcenter so walking in there with a printout of the appropriate page should help you get trade prices.

Sizes up to around 3m are listed in quite a few manufacturers brochures. Ask at a real PM or look around at the _manufacturers_ websites. Sizes over 1.8 metres are generally ordered in rather than ex -stock at most outlets.
