The corner radiator... getting an urge to tell them it needs ....replacement? :)

The pipe radiator- field built obviously to me, but never seen one that big. Looks to be 2" CI fittings?

    Big Radiators

    I recently came across these two big radiators at a church. Anyone seen
    others like them? The corner radiator is a 'double one pipe' though I don't think
    they have enough venting.

    Have seen pictures of similar rads but not in that exact configuration. Bundy Radiators I think?

    radiator valve removal

    I have a customer with a ten suite apt. one pipe steam system that would like to remove all the radiator valves and replace them with radiator ells so the tenants can play with them. Does anyone see an issue with this? I don't other than not being able to change a radiator vent without turning off the whole system.

    That looks like

    either a Bundy or a Reed. Were you able to find the maker's name cast into the base?

    It's a dog

    ... to change out all those valves. You'll probably have to cut some of the unions out of the radiators. Why not just cut the stems off! Hahaha

    ... a quartered version of the round thing I bought last month.
