Radiator positioning

Apr 17, 2004 1 Replies

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.
