leaking rad

[uncle_geoff]

The system is now 20 years old. One rad has a rust pinhole and needs replacing. Rad is 42cm deep and 96 cm long and I cannot find a replacement this size. What is the best approach here - buy undersize and fit an extension connector to one side? If so any recommendations on the best way to achieve this would be much appreciated! TIA

Try Myson rads - I think it's they who go 850, 950 and so on. Otherwise extensions, yes. Several on offer here

ChrisR - thanks for the quick response. I'll see what Myson have on offer...

Thanks for the advice. Bes do have extensions and so do my local plumbing shop and even Sainsburys Homebase! Myson do the rad sizes too, thanks for the tip.

Jolly ghood, thanks for coming back. I think you may find the Myson rads carried by the "PTS" chain (Plumbing Trade Supplies).
