Moving an upright radiator to another part of the living room

Question

Is it possible to move an upright radiator to another part of the the living room.  Also can it be placed on its side?  I can supply pictures if needed

Karl · Accepted Answer

There shouldn’t be any issue with moving the radiator to another part of the living room. Installing a vertical radiator in the horizontal position my cause it to not work to its full potential.

There shouldn’t be any issue with moving the radiator to another part of the living room. You can either have the pipes run along the wall or under the floor boards for a nicer finish. Installing a vertical radiator in the horizontal position in my opinion will cause it to not work to its full potential, there are manufactures that supply both vertical and horizontal to suit all needs of installations when it comes to radiators.

Richard · Answer

Yes that’ll be fine as long as long as it’s installed correctly I cannot see a problem in what you want to do.

Hi, moving the radiator would not be a problem but installing it horizontally might be tricky because of the mounting brackets on the back of the radiator might only be welded in the vertical position.

Toseef · Answer

No problem moving the radiator to another location but to turn it horizontally may not work unless it is designed to work either way.

Curtis · Answer

You can put a radiator anywhere in a room however depending on the age of the house it is always recommended to put it in the coldest part of the room I.E most commonly by the window. An upright radiators brackets will only allow you to hang it In a vertical position.

an upright rad cannot be placed on its side , if there is a rad above can join onto system from there , if not then a new flow and return  from existing system has to be run over to new rad position , a plumber would need to see system
 and pipe run before quoting for job
