Would you call this a Tube type radiator?

Isabella

I'm going to try and calculate EDR. Based on the documentation I am using, I have a few radiators that don't seem to match any of the ones in the diagrams. Closest seems to be tube type. I can lift off the top...as seen in the photo. What do you think?



Thank you.

Check out this original patent for a C.W. Good radiator. That's the only information I've ever found on this style radiator. Still looking for ratings. In the meantime, what are the physical dimensions?

Dimensions

So far, I only have two sizes measured.

One is in a room that is 11 1/2' x 9' and the dimensions are:

24" h x 27" w x 5" d

Second room is 13' x 12' (there is a hallway and closet I didn't include in the measurement), two radiators and the dimensions are:

24" h x 32" w x 5" d

I have a more rooms to measure and some have the same style radiator that are deeper (when you look inside, there are two rows). Then there are a smattering of more traditional radiators as well. 28 radiators total, 19 are this style.

Thank you.

I think

Weil-McLain made that, and it's called Raydiant.

And now that I know what I'm looking for...

It's right on the side, RAYDIANT PAT'D WEIL McLAIN ERIE PA

Thank you.

RATINGS

The Raydiant 5" freestanding cabinet radiator is on page 175 of Dan's EDR book.



For the two you have listed, they are as follows:

5" Deep x 27 1/8" wide x 23" tall = 22.25 EDR

5" Deep x 31 7/8" wide x 23" tall = 25.75 EDR

Isabella

Incredibly helpful information

Dan,

Thank you, that is great. Is it in poor taste to add a few more sizes?

5" d x 20 1/8" h x 22 1/8" w

5" d x 20 1/8 h x 27" w

5" d x 23" h x 37" w

8 1/2" d x 23" h x 32" w

8 1/2" d x 23" h x 41 1/2" w (fondly referred to as 'beast')

Again, thank you.

Thank you

I'm very grateful.

Now just to tackle the radiators in the garage. They don't seem to follow any of the illustrations I have either. I will get some photos and ask more questions tomorrow.

I've almost got it all calculated.
