Riser / pipe EDR

in THE MAIN WALL
I have charts for Radiator's EDR, but I have not found one for pipes. Most multi level homes have exposed, non-insulated risers connecting the radiators from floor to floor and would like to take this EDR into account when stimating the EDR for a given room.

    You can but

    you may also consider that someone at some point will cover it for aesthetics. You are still not talking much per room.

    To figure EDR for piping it is the simple outside area in square feet. Not talking much.

    Personally I would not consider it as heat input to a given room unless I was scrounging, but would take it into account when sizing the boiler.
