Finding the right radiator for your home can be pretty challenging; if you’re in the market but are unaware of what you should get for your home, know that you are not alone. With so many radiators around offering different features, it can be challenging to pick the right one. 

This article will provide you with some key advice on all you need to know about radiators and if you can replace a single radiator with a double radiator. However, before that, we will dive into some basics, so you know a little more about them. 

What is a Column Radiator 

Column radiators have been prioritized in the heating industry for years due to the texture, pattern and dimension it adds to walls and spaces. These are traditionally styled radiators composed of cast iron or mild steel hollow tubes. Regardless of the material, the radiator will be split into sections a.k.a ‘columns.’ The more the columns, the more heat it will force out and the larger the radiator will be. 

Column radiators are available in vertical and horizontal designs as well as in varying materials. Remember, the heating solution you choose can also decide the distinct design of the radiator, so be sure to take your sweet time in deciding what is right for you. 

There are tons of central heating radiators, and just like any other radiator (in order to heat your room), hot water flows through the radiator. The tubes also warm-up and then ultimately heat up the air that surrounds them. With column radiators, the surface area is maximized, which enables heat diffusion from the several columns, diffusing heat around the room easily and quickly. 

Single Radiators vs Double Radiators?

There is no doubt that in most cases, double panels will provide more heat compared to single. But if you wish to reduce heat loss and increase efficiency, you can purchase single panel radiators that come with added convection fins. Double radiators, on the other hand, are perfect if you wish to heat large or medium-sized rooms as the two convector find allows the room to heat faster with increased surface area. 

Can you Replace a Single Radiator With a Double Radiator?

Yes, you can! Luckily, you do have the option to replace a single radiator with a double one, but with the assistance of a professional or a friend. 

With several options to choose from, column radiators and convector radiators are some of the many radiators that you can get for your home. If you were sceptical about finding the right one, don’t worry. We have got you covered. Choose from our range of radiator designs.
