radiators

[regulators]

why are all the radiators in my house underneath windows

[Mattk]

Because its probably the most convenient place to put them as most furniture doesnt go underneath windows.

Actually, most are designed that way to set up a circulation of the air to disperse the heat more evenly throughout the room. The cold air from the windows is heated by the radiators, which then rises, eventually cools and the process begins again... It's much more efficient that just radiant heat alone...

Its because its the best place for them, put mine on the opposite side to what my window is (most conveniet place at the time) but now wnat to knock through and cant because the bloomin rads in the way

clanad is spot on it is the most efficient place to site a radiator.
