Hello, first post looking fore some help please.
I am having a garage conversion and have had four quotes from very reputable companies. All have said adding one radiator to an exisiting system is never an issue, some have done over 400 jobs and never been a problem. When I have said thought you are meant to calculate boiler can cope they say you can, but one rad never a problem! Is this correct?
My other problem is my house is 9 years old and I have never had a boiler or heating issue in all those years, rads heat up immediately and are hot enough. On checking for flow and returns of the 9 rads I have 5 are thermostat side, 4 are other side. I know you can get thermostats that go either side so presume that not issue (they are Danfoss).
I presume these are all on right flow, return as am I right in thinking if one was on wrong way round e.g. return going into radiator it wouldn't get hot so quickly??
Just worried how builders will connect new rad when there is no pattern to my flow and return pipes?
Any advice / help THANKS
