We're remodeling and have two radiators that don't work for the new layout. They're looking for a new home. Both radiators are set up for single pipe steam system.

Rad #1
American Radiator - Corto style. 20 inches tall. 6 tube, 25 sections. Catalog lists EDR as 75. Comes with original spud/matching valve. Original bronze colored finish in good condition.

Rad #2
American Radiator - Corto Style. 38 inches tall. 5 tube, 9 sections. Catalog lists EDR as 45. Comes with original spud/matching valve. Original bronze colored finish in good condition.

Location: Plymouth, MI.

I'd rather them find a new home instead of getting scrapped. Private message me if you're interested.

Two photos posted below. I can send additional photos for those that are interested.

Post edited to include EDR ratings and photos.



Burnham IN5PVNI Boiler, Single Pipe with 290 EDR
18 Ounce per Square Inch Gauge
Time Delay Relay in Series with Thermostat
Operating Pressure 0.3-0.5 Ounce per Square Inch

    I'm tempted to pick em up my self but I have no way of getting that big one. :S thing has got to weigh in at close too 1k lbs. I wonder how hard it would be to get the plug out of the bottom and a bushing in?

    My guess is the big one is between 500-600 lbs based on a rule of thumb of 7-8 lbs per EDR I found on a heatinghelp posting.

    Used an acetylene torch when I changed the fittings in my radiators. Got them good and hot, air cool. Had no difficulty but my experience is limited to 6 radiators.
