I have a Worchester 35cdi 2

3 - Large double rads downstairs
3 - Small double rads upstairs
1 - Small towel rail

what i wanted to do is...

- add a new radiator in the kitchen (not one there now and its freezing!)
- place a bigger towel rail in the bathroom (situated above the kitchen its cold too)
- maybe beef up some of the smaller rads upstairs

Questions are if you please ......

1 - Can my bolier handle another radiator for the kitchen? Can i branch from 22mm pipes upstairs and run 15mm pipes to the downstairs kitchen?

2 - I cannot place the new radiator under the kitchen window, will it look strange just hung on a side wall? Is that unproffesional?

3 - Is it normal for bathrooms to only have a towel rail? should i scrap it and just install a radiator instead? My current towel rail is approx 1000 btu and i think i require 1800 btu


THANKS GUYS!
