Boiler Relocation

in THE MAIN WALL

Hello!

I'm looking to relocate a large radiator to the other side of the windows to be able to fit a sectional couch. How bad will this affect heating the entire room? Thanks.

    not much. Looks like it's hot water, so as long as the piping is very similar — lengths,, size, fittings — there may be no difference at all.

    If it doesn't fit in the space between the window and wall on the right I might turn it 90 degrees and run it parallel to the wall on the right instead of putting it in front of the window like it is now. I wonder if someone put in a taller window at some point and it used to fit under the window.

    you could also get a short, wide radiator to fit under the window.
