1900 long Radiator - Anyone Know Who Makes One??
awt...@gmail.com
Getting desperate!
Just as it says above – anyone know who or where I can get one?
Ideally 600 high double convector
1800 or 2000 appear to be common sizes – but I don’t want to modify
the piping if possible.
Thanks,
Kev

Hi,
Getting desperate!
In my experience (assuming identical ones aren't available) you always ends
up modifying the piping. Modifying by 25mm is often more difficult than
modifying by 100mm!

There lies the problem - pipes go into a solid (concrete?) floor and
boss (wife) does not want to see bent
'S' shaped pipe to extend from the existing.

What did you do different in that last reply? It quoted properly?

It weren't me at fault it were the OP (I think) I replied to the OP's post
(which was from google) and it didn't quote properly. No problem replying to
your post, which was and did quote properly.

Can't you get the shorter one and pad the ends out with a couple if
tailpieces each end?..

Hi Tony,
I thought of this but the only tails I know of (from screwfix) are not
long enough:
Pipe centres = 1987mm
Pipe centre to bottom of socket = 15mm
Rad = 1800mm
Hence: 1987 - (2x15) - 1800 = 157
Therefore each tail needs to have a 78.5mm extension
The total length of the srewfix one is about 50mm - it would need to
be about 25mm longer to be long enough.
Anyone know of any tails this long?

Connect two together in "series" ?..
Our local plumbing shop seems to have them in quite a few different
sizes not a lot of use to you but!..

I think it would work to use one of these minus nut and olive in the
radiator, followed by chrome pipe to the required length, then a
compression rad valve such as http://www.screwfix.com/prods/49258
(without the first section obviously)

That looks like it might do the job, I think all I would need is the
extension bit from the product you showed plus the tail I was looking
at http://www.screwfix.com/prods/15531/Plumbing/Radiator-Valves/Adjustable-Radiator-Valve-Tail-Compression
Then I could just adjust the length to suit.
I'll check it out and post how I get on
Cheers,
Kev

When I installed my heating in 2002, I bought Ultraheat radiators.
They have a catalogue with lots of standard sizes, but they don't
really have standard sizes, and they are all made to order, so they
can make any size you want.
Ignore the prices in their catalogue - I didn't pay even half those
amounts, including VAT.
You will probably need to find an independent plumbers merchant
who deal with them. The larger chains won't have the concept of
ordering anything which isn't in the catalogue with a part number.
My main reason for using Ultraheat was that I wanted several
triple panel radiators, something which they do, and I also
used their bottom fed compact 6 range. I first became aware of
them when I went into the plumbers merchant and there was a long
radiator awaiting collection which had been made by Ultraheat for
someone's bay window with two bends in it.
