C/H RADIATOR ABOVE BATH

[mondeo057]

Hi is it allowable to have a gas central heating radiator installed above the head end of the bath? i have nowhere else to put it.

With all due respect, a rad above the bath is daft.

As for seb, only needed if the leccie is set up under 16th edition rules and fed by metal pipes all the way back to outside the bathroom, and no seb present in or near the bathroom, and impedance more than 50 mOhms.

Better if it was a towel rail. more in keeping as were ???

Rad over bath doesn't look good, towel rail better, but not the best position. If your tight on space how about underfloor heating instead?

 

[robhall]

yes thats a good idea, you can hang your towels on the floor then.

Couldn't you squeeze a tall narrow column rad in somewhere.

This one's less than 10'' wide.
