That's tough engrish John. What company is it? Are you asking whether they are similar to a Burnham model? Are you "lodging" in a 24 flat building that has them installed?

    If so

    I believe Alan "California Radiant" Forbes used them once or twice, and liked them a lot.

    rads

    for someone who grew with English my posting had more spelling erors than I woulsd expect from ny kids.

    Anyhow, here'ss the deal.
    This building's replacement steam radiator schedule calls for "Steam Radiator Company" Steam View Model SV24-radiators. That are 24 inches long,36'' long, 48'' long, 69'' long and 72'' long, 23 1/2 inches high by 2 1/2 inches deep. Thsy also specd Some burnham which are easy tp get. As mentioned I have been unable to unearth these rads in Chicago. These may be conventional rads but they name kinda threw me for a loop. Of course I want to ensure the correct rads are installed because the boiler is not being changed. Thanks for the help.

    No, Mike, all these are floor mounted, and were removed or stolen, I have a feeling that they were the old classic style as the building is from the early 1900's. If they are the old style, I can get used rads if need be. Thanks again for the help.

    I have never heard of the company name. Maybe there was some local co. that flopped at an early date before the Dead men could pass on the clues. As Dan has always said Steam heat will always bear a surprise and we'll still be making new discoveries. You may have made a new discovery. Get pictures of these rads if possible.

    These are the ones then. In terms of your supplier I'm sure you can find them. Take care -Daniel
