What is the difference between Type 21 and 22 radiators?
The difference between Type 22 and Type 21 convector radiators is that in Type 22 radiators, there are two sets of convector fins inside the radiator. These obviously push out more heat and are thicker than your average Type 21 radiator.
What is a double plus radiator?
Type 21 radiators are also known as P+ radiators or double panel plus radiators. They are a conventional type of radiator with 2 panels (front and back) and 1 set of convector fins in the middle usually zigzag shaped which distribute air evenly.
Can I replace a type 21 radiator with a type 22?
There are no rules that say a type 22 radiator can’t be used anywhere. However, if a type 21 radiator (in any room) gives the correct output and to a length and height suitable looking for the wall space, then you use it. It will not come as far out from wall as a type 22. I note you have a TRV on that radiator.
What do you call a Type 21 radiator?
Type 21 radiators are also known as P+ radiators or double panel plus radiators. They are a conventional type of radiator with 2 panels (front and back) and 1 set of convector fins in the middle usually zigzag shaped which distribute air evenly.
What kind of radiator is double panel plus?
A double panel plus radiator also known as a type 21 radiator, is one where there are two radiator panels and one set of convector fins to maximise heat ouptut. Ideal for any room in the home, we have a wide range of sizes in our radiators available. They come with all of the necessary fixings and brackets for installation…
What kind of radiator has two panels and convector fins?
A double panel plus radiator also known as a type 21 radiator, is one where there are two radiator panels and one set of convector fins to maximise heat ouptut.
How many convectors are in a double radiator?
Single radiators (T11) have one heating panel and one convector fin. Double Radiators have two panels and one convector (T21) or two convectors (T22) 2 of 2 found this answer helpful.
