old radiators

DeeDee

I have about 8 maybe 10 old American Arco radiators. They are in our Church and we are thinking of updating our heating system so that we can have air as well. Any idea what the worth of these old radiators can be? we would like to see if we can sell them to help pay for new heating system?

Here's a link to a number of companies that can answer that:

They all buy and sell.

if your system is working now, i would keep it, as  the cost of heating with a forced air system, may well be more than with a hydronic system-a lot more.

there are mini-split systems which can take care of the air conditioning.

in addition, the floors under the radiators will probably need refinishing.

if your system is not functioning well, then send us the details, and a picture, and we can help you get it right once again!--nbc
