750mm (width) Radiator - cant find one anywhere?

[sjw64]

Hi

All my rads in my house are obscure widths and I need to replace 3 of them but can I find replacement sizes anywhere - can I heck.

Rad 1 - 750mm width
Rad 2 - 1760mm
Rad 3 - 1360mm

height is not an issue (all 700mm)

Does anyone know where I can get them? My only hope seems to be eBay hoping someone is flogging one near me.

I can really go under the floorboards to shorten/lengthen the pipework - but I have a feeling thats the way it has to be.

Thanks

Myson imperial round tops aren't far away from what you are looking for http://www.myson.co.uk/products/premier_he.asp#tabbed-2

Try a shorter rad and google radiator valve extenders, best and cheapest answer.

I suspect your 750mm is a 30" and your 1360 is 4' 6".

But the 1760 seems odd, its about 70". Are you sure you have measured it correctly?

As suggested usually you use the next smaller with extended valve fittings.

If the wall permits I tend to go wider and extend the pipe under the rad. Usually looks much neater than an extension of done carefully and with a street elbow coming of the valve.

Obviously a non-starter if the read is in a confined location.

Better heat output and efficiency that way too

Vogel and Noot do a width of 720mm. Combine that with the longer fitments that TRVs and lockshields (particularly drain off ones) have thse days and you should fill your 750mm gap without altering the pipes.

Standard relative Myson Imperial sizes are 29,53 and 69 inches respectively.

Look on page 12 here

The problem is that Myson rads are ridiculously expensive and as already mentioned some of the Vogel and Noot range are a comfortably close cheaper alternative that will usually do the trick.

Myson may be stupidly expensive but they can be congratulated in still offering a range of ( some ) imperial sizes.

They are very useful for replacements when it is difficult to fit a different size.

They should publicise them more though.
