How important is radiator location in a room?

Think Norc has dropped below even J90's and Mikefromlondon levels of credibility now.
Are they still around. Haven't seen so much recently.
Thankfully tucked away in the GD with the rest of the loonies. Have some fun with them on occasion, but frankly dealing with idiots like that too often is boring.

That George steele book goes some way to explaining this.

This is the problem with wrestling with a pig..... You both get dirty and the pig likes it....
Pigs are useful None of our radiators are under windows. We have newish double glazed units. The walls are a mixture of original, rather poorly insulated system-built and others I have upgraded with internal insulation. I do not notice any draught from lack of radiators under windows.
On the other hand our non room-sealed back boiler requires a vent that would make a draught from a window seem like a warm breeze but plenty of people tell me this is a good thing as that's how it's always been done!

Quite! and the more you seal up your home the more important it is for you to have ventilation for your BBU....There is a reason why it has always been done
I'm talking of them saying it's a good thing having a boiler setup that requires a 100 cm^3 hole letting a gale into the room, not that the vent isn't necessary for a non-room sealed boiler. I'm well aware that it's necessary as I don't want to wake up dead one morning
I'm just saying 'the way it's always been done' is often bad to continue with, especially when it comes to energy saving. I think it's a big reason why this country is well behind others in this field as people stick with the 'tried and tested' rather than more modern innovations.
