Imperial to metric size radiators

[Jacka]

Hi all

I am looking to change my radiators in the bedrooms of my house because they aren't heating the rooms. Problem is they are imperial and getting a new radiators will either mean the the radiators are too long or too short. Is there a way of extending pipe work from the valve without cutting the carpets and floor boards?

Cheers for the help

David

There is a similar alternative available at Toolstation which screws into the body of the(shorter)radiator
I like them as they do not rely on the rubber seal and they do not look too shabby when in place, I seal them with Ptfe tape
Item number varies as they are offered in different lengths, see page 334, radiator valve extensions, I must learn how to add links
