I have just moved into a property where the radiators are rather ancient and need replacing. The length of the existing radiators is 1280mm and the nearest length I can find is 1200mm. Can anyone tell me how I can compensate for the difference when fitting? Thanks
Extended radiator tails, or drain system & shorten pipe, cheaper option.
