Hello,
We've recently moved house and two of the bedrooms are cold. I think the problem is that the radiators are too small for the rooms. I've found a couple of radiator calculators on-line but some are more sophisticated than others (taking into account type and size of windows, number exterior walls, etc) and each has given me a different recommended radiator size! How do I know which one to choose?
If I upgrade the radiators will the rooms warm faster and get warmer? I would think that with a big rad. you could turn it down if it was too hot, whereas you cannot turn up a small rad. past its limit.
If I won the lottery and upgraded all rads. would I hit a problem if the BTUs of the rads. were greater than the BTU that the boiler is capable of?
If I only changed these two rads, hopefully I would not reach this limit nor have this problem. How do I find out the BTU rating of my existing rads and boiler?
Thanks.
