how to identify roll-top radiator manufacturer?

Muzz · 7 Oct 2010

I've got roll-top radiators throughout my house, I want to find out the maker so I can find out the water content to calculate inhibitor and because I want to find out the BTU size to see if they are sized appropriatly for each room.

My googling has found that Myson make roll-tops, just wondering if they were a myson only design? I can't see any manufacturer stamps on the ones i've got.

you are being far too accurate for your own good, as for inhibitor, stick 1 ltr in a normal house and 2 ltrs in a big house, as for btu's, most are very similar so measure the rad and check it out against a manufacturers spec sheet

not sure i have too much time on my hands, but I do like to know how stuff works in as much detail as possible!

as far as inhibiter goes, i see you can get cheapo test kits to make sure you have the dosage right so I'll get one of those.
