I would like to replace a couple of radiators but I can't find the same size ones
For example, bedroom radiators measure 1435 m/m width
And retailers like B&Q stock width sizes like 1400 and 1500
So is there anything on the market like extensions or how do I work around this
thx for any help :)
 
Firstly, there is no such thing as a "STUPID" radiator size!!
all radiators are made to "SENSIBLE" sizes!!
it sounds like your original rad is probalby sized to an older Imperial measurement - however the previous post shows you a link to a 1/2" BSP
Male to Female radiator tail extension - availible in diffrent lengths to take up diffrences in Rad size.

ALL VERY SENSIBLE would you not agree? :wink:
