three radiators connected together

Robert Crokenower

Vacuum system. can three steam radiators be connected in a row. steam in at the top of radiator number one and pipe ran to the next radiator at the top and then to the third radiator at the top. the bottom of all three raditors are connected the same way with a steam trap at the bottom of the last raditor. is this ok, will it work? Has been installed for years this way

Should I trap each radiator and leave the steam entering all three as is. or do I have to connect each steam supply individually to each radiator.

Steamhead

Unusual to be sure

but is it working properly?

I would say it depends on the size

of the radiators, the cross over pipes, and the size of the supply pipe. Do you have a photo? The only issue I would say is the steam not reaching each radiator at the same time.
