Rad pipes

[bolst3r]

so running the pipes down the studwork then looping up out the floor should pose to many problems for the heating guy?

It's certainly not something that would phaze me, the pipes need to be millimetre perfect though

only problem you will have with the loop is it may produce turbulent as opposed to laminar flow which may if not calculated correctly produce exess niose and wear on the valve seat etc

This whole "it has to be mm perfect" surely that's the same whether they're out of the wall and floor. Anyway i'm screwed for time but it sounds like it's ok to get these rads??????????????????

A standard valve for a standard rad often is adjustable to a degree, your valves are the traditional union valves so no adjustment. Don't worry, a Plumber will sort it.
