Any idea where I can locate replacement cast iron radiators by American Radiator or find a repair service?

Fred

Where are you located? For steam or Hot water heat? Check the "Buy, Sell, Barter" tab on the right.

@nelsonnucla , what's "Off Topic" about asking the poster for specific info, in her search for radiators?

I have exact same rads in my home. Mine are 19"

On page 17 it says "Tappings: 1-1/2" inches top and bottom and bushed for water or steam."
I am looking for a new valve, hopefully thermostatic. I can not find 1-1/2" valves anywhere except this non-thermostatic one: http://www.supplyhouse.com/Matco-Norca-BARVY-1500-1-1-2-FIP-x-Male-Union-Steam-Angle-Radiator-Valve
Anyone have any hints?

@elmwoodie If it is for 1 pipe steam then you need a thermostatic vent which is something like this: http://www.supplyhouse.com/Honeywell-V2043HSL10-1-8-One-Pipe-Steam-Thermostatic-Radiator-valve-includes-air-vent

My mother's place has one that looks like the frontispiece. It sure throws off a lot of heat.
