aluminum radiators

lolo

Why don't we have them in the USA?
Cast aluminum radiators. They are good looking and their btu output much higher than cast iron, or steel, so they take less spaces, they react faster, and you deliver the btu where you want them, in the room, not in the walls. They are modular, so they get built into any size. cheaper to ship. They are install everywere in Europe.
Come on , there's a huge business waiting to happen here!!
any takers?
happy new year!!
Ps. I love america, and there is a long list of things here , they don't have overthere.

Biggest problem

must be the connections. You can't sweat alum. and threaded joints are soft and fragile. You would have to transition to another base metal for fittings and that would expand the cost greatly. I thought copper had better heat conductivity numbers.
