Would anyone know where I could find some old castiron radiators with legs for hydronic heat?

    I live in Wyoming so the shipping would probably be pretty high.Although I have to pay the same high shipping costs to get some new ones over here.Anyone closer to Wy. with smaller c.i. radiators for sale? Thankyou very much for the responce.

    Cast Iron Rads

    I've said this previously but I have gotten some great old radiators from local scrap yards. You have to scope them out carefully and then pressure test them, but they will usually sell them to you for the current price of cast iron scrap, which is pennies a pound. Helps to flush them out before use as any scale or debris build up gets knocked loose after being pitched off the back of a pick up truck. Sometimes you get lucky and get 'em as they come in. I outfitted a good portion of a five story industrial building that was converted to 50 loft apartments this way. Hope this helps.

    Happy hunting

    Jim
