Radiator Types

Baseray Baseboards

The sleek and subtle design of this baseboard suits most types of room décor. Baseray baseboards can be painted virtually any color, easily accommodating your surroundings. Additionally, cast iron Baseray baseboards provide a quieter sound while delivering up to five times the amount of radiant heat provided by metal finned baseboards.

Slenderized Radiators

For optimal steam heat or hot water delivery, choose a slenderized radiator. Slim, versatile, and durable, slenderized radiators retain heat in a low profile package. This type of radiator is perfect for a smaller space, as it’s lower and provides extended warmth when the boiler isn’t running. Cast iron slenderized radiators allows for a quieter experience, as the expansion and contraction sounds are virtually inaudible.

Radiant Radiators

Radiant radiators draw in cool air through the bottom and project warm air through the top, allowing the free passage of air through built-in air channels. This type of radiator provides both radiant and convected (hot air) heat, providing your home with comfortable warmth. The cast iron construction enables even heat distribution, quiet operation, and excellent heat retention properties. Radiant radiators can fit into wall recesses and cabinets, and they can also be used as standalone heat distributors.

Classic Radiators

Perfect for retrofitting, classic radiators feature durable cast iron construction and ornate surface detail. For a timeless appearance, brass valves are also available. The cast iron construction allows for quiet operation, eliminating the expansion noises associated with other radiators. In addition to its classic look, this type of radiator also provides even heat distribution and comfortable warmth, shielding outside walls and windows from cold air. 

Retrofitted Radiators

At Plumbers Equipment Company, we provide customized replacement radiators that can be retrofitted right into your home. Retrofitted radiators increase the efficiency of heat distribution, saving you significantly on heating costs. No matter the scope of your plans, our dedicated representatives work with you to identify the radiator components you need.
