how does the type of piping to radiators affect how much heat is delivered to the radiatoirs?
how does the following piping compare:
7mm copper
15mm copper
7mm polyplastic
15mm polyplastic
I have radiators that are not getting hot enough, I am wondering if the piping to the radiators need changing.
if a radiator is giving out its maximum btu/kw rating, what temperature is the radiator likely to be? shouldn't the radiator be piping hot, ie too hot to touch? my rads are hardly even warm, yet their btu rating is pretty much what the calculatin say they should be for the room.
