Greetings All, this site come highly recommended by friends and fellow plumbers. I am trying to find heat output charts for older " in-wall/hidden radiators" . (They are original, home was built in the 1940's. Gravity System converted over to hot water.) I am not sure if I am using the correct name But measuring about 16" in H and sectional with slant style fins but no columns. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Post some pictures - you've come to the right place. You'll need to derate the rad since you're running water rather than steam through.
Our host, Dan Holohan, has a great reference book, Every Darned Radiator (EDR), with the manufacturers' specs for rads. It's a great document.
Stay tuned for better help than this message.0
