there is no real "rule of thumb" for figuring the rads size to install in a room. The only method is a proper heat-loss calc. Anything shy of that, is strictly a guess.<BR><BR>Dave

    Steam Rad - # fins / square foot formula?

    Is there a formula or rule of thumb for sizing a steam radiator? ie Number of fins for number of square feet of room.

    Thanks in advance -
    Frank
