Is my radiator the correct size?

It looks like maybe I needed to use the words "double convector radiator", rather than the words "double radiator" and that perhaps my single convector radiator doesn't give out as much as double the heat of a single radiator that size. I would expect a heating firm to realise that the average person in the street (hmmm...being a bit sexist here....and that includes some middle-aged women like myelf....might need a bit of "interpreting" into technical terms and they would have interpreted what I said correctly into their language OR explained how things are a bit to me and asked me exactly what I wanted)

I assume from this that you have had a company in to install these radiators and told them what size radiators you wanted.

As you see to be aware we don't just pick a radiator because it fits there we have to work out the output required for that room and take it from there.

If the company fitted these radiators without working out the outputs then maybe another company should have been used.
