    You can!!!8217;t say, it needs calculating.

    Depends on the heating system, the size of the room the area of external wall the area of windows are they single or double glazed, the insulation in the roof the insulation in the walls the geographical location of the property. How warm you want the bedroom.

    Mine is 1100mm x 600mm

    As mentioned by MX5huggy it needs calculating.

    Plenty of free to use heat loss calculators online which will give a guide but increase the radiator output size if your a soft southerner !
