Column Radiators – Timeless Heating with Modern Efficiency
Column radiators have been a favourite in the industry for years, thanks to their classic style and all-round heating efficiency. Whether you're upgrading a modern home or restoring a Victorian terrace, column rads offer the ideal blend of function and form.
A column radiator features multiple vertical tubes (or columns), typically made from mild steel or cast iron. This design not only gives it a classic, architectural appearance, but also ensures outstanding heat distribution. The spacing between each radiator column increases surface area, helping to heat rooms quickly and efficiently.
How efficient are Column Radiators?
Widely considered one of the most efficient radiator designs, column radiators are ideal when it comes to effectively radiating warmth around a room.
Thanks to the space between each column, column radiators have a much larger surface area compared to many other radiators, meaning they can heat air quickly and from multiple angles. Cast iron versions also retain heat longer, providing warmth even after the heating system is turned off.
A 4 column radiator, for example, offers higher BTU output, making it perfect for larger rooms or high-ceilinged spaces. On the other hand, 2 column radiators suit smaller rooms or properties with limited wall space.
Simply put, if you have enough room for a column radiator, it’s a consistently solid choice when it comes to quick, efficient room heating.
