    cool but putting in curved radidators to search brings up suppliers of mainly curved towel rail/bathroom radiators.

    Putting in bay window radiators bring up better results. Look expensive to buy though

  • Can you still get curved radiators to fit under windows?


    Yes they will be, you now know that they are available. ;)
  • Yeah very expensive. Its about £300 for ours under the window, compared to £120 for a simple straight rad on the inside wall.

    Still can't decide, the window wall is always free but also with the new layout of the room the far inside wall is free. I do think common sense it should go under the window, done searches on google and most bring up pages saying under window.

    Another option is a pair of double panel finned radiators either side of the window. Put then in series, so they are effectively 1 radiator with 1 control valve. Price midway, I would think and nearly as good as a curved rad under the window for comfort

    Is that a grin or a smiley of chattering teeth?.....pfttt,


    Under the window-always.

    And if you have full length curtains?

    Once we priced the corved radiators we went for another wall. We put seats with storage under the window to make use of the space.
