How to have Horizontal TRV at top, yet still have flow BOE?

[sevenupcan]

Is it possible to have the thermostatic radiator valve at the top of the radiator yet still have the flow going in at the bottom and return coming out the opposite end?

I've seen pictures like these...



Do I need a special type of radiator for this configuration?

They're special rads.

I think normally you have the TRV on the flow pipe. If it's a bi-directional TRV you could fit it on the return pipe instead, but with you'd still need to have one of the pipes at the top.

Do you know what I search for to find them?

I'm guessimg they have a pipe internally with a valve at the top.

Purmo Ventil (or the Stelrad mentioned above).
