Radiator installation

[danrhope]

Hi all
I would like to install a radiator andwould like to know if it is acceptable to have 2 radiators in parallel coming from the same 15mm pipe from the flow and return.

To make it clearer. My current situation is as in Fig_1 below. The layout and size of radiators etc is roughly to scale. I'm asking if it's possible for me to install another rad as in Fig_2 (on the other side of a wall).



Thanks in advance

In fact...I can get the pictures up...but if you think you can help but I haven't made it clear enough then post your email and I'll send them to you. Thanks again

okay here are the pics...before and after (hopefully)
The rads are 6 foot cast iron school radiators.
Thanks again

What did you use to generate those pictures?

a 3d package...I'm an animator - not a plumber!

The answer is that you can. The system would need some subtle rebalancing to ensure that both rads received enough flow.
