A friend of mine sent me an image of this FB post about radiators being for sale for $20 a piece. I don’t have a FB account so can’t actually respond to the person and ask why on earth they ripped them out in the first place. Sharing here in case some of you steam heads might be in the market or if one of the pros on here (Dave LaBar?) perhaps get some old radiators for future jobs if they have the space to store them. The picture in the posting made me 😞. This is for pickup in Summit NJ.

    It says they were working until torn out. Probably some heat-pump pusher took advantage of the fact that you can't fix stupid.

    Meh. When I get old radiators, I pay a scrap guy to take them away unless they're in some way exceptional.

    They look exceptional, but storing them and carting them around is another story. Mad Dog

    I want the small one in the back.

    (In fact I want all of them, but my wife would kill me, and so would my back. I have long wanted to replace the radiators in my house with in-wall convectors, because there's just no room.)

    Is there any way to contact them outside of Facebook? I don't do Facebook.
