Hi
My bedroom is very cold even with the heating on and I have a few questions about a potential permanent solution to this problem
My bedroom radiator is currently on an internal wall, at a 90 degrees angle to the windows and then about 1.5m away. The windows take up the half the height of the external wall and take up the entire width. The carpets are always cold and there seems to be a permanent cold spot outside of the immediate vicinity of the radiator. This is despite a double panel single vector radiator being installed in the place of a single panel one.
1) Would moving the radiator to the wall under the window help? This seems to be the conventional wisdom. My living room radiator sits under windows and is able to heat up the room fully, despite the room being larger. The bedroom wall under the window is always freezing cold.
2) The hot water supply to radiators happens in the following order: Kitchen, living room, bedroom, hallway. If the above was done, it would mean splitting the supply as it enters the bedroom and pushing hot water to both the bedroom radiator and the hallway in one go, and accepting a return feed from both at the same time. Would there be any issues in doing this?
Hope someone can help as I'm at my wits end with this!
Thanks
