I’m trying to find the EDR on some baseboard. It’s not cast iron. it’s 1.5 iron pipe the fins are 4.5 wide and the baseboard cover is either 18 or 24 inch high . I have roughly 100 feet of it. I tried googling it but really didn’t get the answer, I even tried becon morris

    You could send us a picture, or you could calculate it yourself if you can make a reasonable estimate of the area of each fin. Send some pics with a ruler on it showing the dimensions and we'll all have fun throwing guesses at you.

    Any reasonable guess is guaranteed close enough. There is 30 percent slop in every boiler rating.

    Look at Haydon 1200 Slope top commercial baseboard. They offered a 1-1/2" steel pipe with aluminum fin commercial radiator at one time. It appears that they no longer offer the 1200, but have a model 1000-S125A

    here is the specification page

    Hope this helps.
