Calculate your heating requirements

If you’re thinking about upgrading the heating system in your home with cast iron radiators, we can help. The first step is to calculate the BTU requirements for your home.

Cast iron radiators are sold in different lengths, and these lengths relate to different heat levels. First, you need to know the heat requirements for your rooms. You can then choose the perfect vintage style radiators to heat your home.

We have a free BTU calculator on our website to make it easier to calculate your heat requirements. Once you know your BTU requirements, you can then choose the radiator styles that you love.
