To calculate the heat output needed for a room;

Find the volume of the room by multiplying the width x length x height in metres. For downstairs lounges and dining rooms multiply by 50. For downstairs bedrooms, halls and kitchens multiply by 40. For upstairs lounges and dining rooms multiply by 40. For upstairs bedrooms, multiply by 35. For upstairs kitchens, multiply by 30. For downstairs bathrooms multiply by 90, for upstairs bathrooms multiply by 75. For rooms facing North add 15%. For French windows add 20%. For double glazing deduct 10%. For a very cold climate such as windy high altitude locations, add 10%. This will give you the required heat output in Watts. To convert heat outputs to BTU multiply the Watts figure by 3.41. For guidance on installing your Castrads cast iron radiator please download the Help Sheet Cast iron radiator sizing figures quoted here are given in good faith and are true to the best of Castrads' knowledge. Actual heat requirements for a given room can vary. The heat output of a radiator can also vary according to the paint finish and draftiness of the room.

Length of a radiator is the length of a section times the number of sections. Add 60mm at EACH end of radiator to obtain inlet/outlet pipe centre distances. This allows for supplied bush and valve at each end. Tolerance on these dimension s is + or - 4% and depends on the batch of radiator and the type of valve. Maximum working pressure for all Castrads' cast iron radiators is 90psi.
