in THE MAIN WALL
Looking for 3 small (17"-21") wide and 5 or 6 inches deep (thick), two line hot water cast iron radiators for my home in central New York.. One need to fit under a window the other can be of any height.
I have also thought about running baseboard in these bedrooms where the radiators need to be replaced, but was told baseboard off a 1 inch system doesn't always work well. Any comments?
I also thought about using European or wall hung radiators as an alternative, but wonder in they would work with my present system.

    radiators

    Panel radiators work well and will work with your current system. Your current system should be a monoflow system and you want to hook the panel radiators up on a monoflow system. You could put standard baseboard in and that should also work well, but it won't be as comfortable. Baseboard is convection heat and radiators are radiant. What part of NY do you live in.

    Steam Radiators

    I just pulled 8 cast iron one pipe steam radiators from my house yesterday. One of them may work for you, its approximately 20" long, fits under the sill of a window and is about 5" deep. Let me know if you're interested via email and I'll send some photos. Southern Maine
