  • If you can,

    see if there is the name of the manufacturer somewhere on the radiator.

    Original?

    Is the rad original to the house or installed for aesthetics during the renovation. Obviously the system has been re-piped. I would sure love to see the name on it as well.

    That union looks like hell, they should have installed a spud at the top.
