How do I work out the right size (height/width and BTU) for your room?

Look at the radiator's BTU figure first, the filters show ranges from about 1,000 up to 8,000+ BTUs, which tells you heating power. For a typical medium living room you'll generally want around 3,000–5,000 BTU, so a double vertical panel around 1600–1800mm high and 455–605mm wide (an 1800 x 530mm double flat panel) is a common match. Smaller rooms or hallways often need 2,000–3,000 BTU and can use narrower models (300–400mm wide). Always check the individual product BTU against your room calculation before buying.

Which material should you choose, aluminium, mild steel or steel?

Aluminium is lightweight and responds quickly, so it's great when you want fast heat-up and less water in the system. Mild steel (the most common in our range) is robust and durable, offering steady, long-lasting heat; it's widely used for designer flat and column profiles. Standard steel radiators are also sturdy but heavier; they're a good choice if you want a traditional cast-like look. Pick aluminium for quick response, mild steel for everyday durability and a broad range of styles.

I've only got a narrow strip of wall, will a vertical double radiator fit and still heat the room?

Yes, vertical double radiators are designed for that situation. Widths in our range start as narrow as about 240–300mm and go up to 700mm, while heights commonly sit at 1600–1800mm, so you can maximise heat output from a slim footprint. a 1800 x 300mm double flat panel gives strong output without taking much horizontal wall space, ideal between a window and a door. The double panel design means you don't sacrifice warmth just because the radiator is narrow.

Which profile and finish will suit your kitchen or bathroom style?

If you want a modern, minimalist look choose a flat or flat-curved profile in anthracite, black or grey, these finishes are popular and contemporary. For a period or cottage feel go for a column profile in white or traditional tones; Park Lane's Colosseum column range illustrates that look. Oval tube profiles bridge modern and classic tastes well in anthracite or white, so they work in kitchens and bathrooms where you want a softer silhouette.

Are double vertical radiators better than single or triple panels for most rooms?

Double panels are a great balance for most medium to large rooms, they deliver higher output than single panels without the deep projection of a triple. The product range shows predominantly double configurations because they give strong heat while keeping a slim overall depth on the wall. Choose a triple only if you need maximum output for a large, poorly insulated room; a single suits very small rooms where projection must be minimal.
