Looking on ebay there are a stack of second hand rads. Im not geting involved in cast/antique or even old radiators. But there are quite a lot of new-design single/double etc radiators that are 'removed after 6months as undersized' or 'comes from 3year old house after extenion added' or whatever.
Other than sludge, and corrosion, which can be washed out and or are proberbly no worse than what I currently have fitted. Anything else to look out for?
My rad sizes are all over the shop as the previous owner appears to have fitted a poorly speced 'radator pack' that came with the boiler, plus a few he had left over from another job and I plan to work out what I have and what I think I need and do some shuffling.
The pipes come out of the floor at spacings for the previous rads, looped in with a mix of 10mm copper and just about anything else so can be adapted to a fairly large extent
I own the house and may hang on to it for a while yet, letting out half the rooms, living in one of the others during the week, but its not a long term of family home.
