Q: What are your views on fitting radiator covers? I would like to do so from the aesthetic point of view, but am concerned about what the impact might be on the heating efficiency.
A: If properly designed, with large air gaps at high and low level, a radiator cover should not interfere with the heat transfer from the radiator to the room, as there will be a flue effect of air being drawn through it. But a poorly designed or DIY radiator cover, might not work so well.
Our baseboard heater covers are manufactured and thoroughly tested to ensure proper flow of air, so you can be rest assured your getting the same great efficient heating output without the ugly covers, guaranteed.
