How do Type 22 double panel double convector radiators heat a room, and why would you pick one?

Type 22 radiators use two panels and two rows of internal convector fins to heat by convection — the fins warm the air inside the radiator and the heated air escapes through vents at the top. That gives a high heat output for the radiator's size, so they are particularly good for larger rooms such as living rooms or master bedrooms. The trade-off is a slightly deeper profile than single-panel radiators, so you need adequate wall clearance. If you want strong, fast convective heat in a room with space for a deeper unit, Type 22 is a sensible choice.

How do I choose the right size and BTU output for my room?

Use the BTU Output (Delta 50) filter to match the radiator's rated output to the heat requirement of your room — the range on offer spans roughly 1,000 up to 25,000 BTU so you can select a suitable bracket. Then pick a physical size that fits the wall: widths on the site run from about 400mm up to 2,500mm and heights from roughly 300mm to 2,200mm. For example, larger living rooms commonly use taller or wider models such as many 600×1,300–1,600mm options listed, while smaller rooms use narrower or shorter sizes. If you know the BTUs required, filter by that first and then choose the height and width that suit your wall.

Can I fit a double panel radiator in a narrow or tall space?

Yes — there are vertical Type 22 options as well as horizontal ones; the site shows verticals among the range and heights up to around 2,200mm. You'll also find narrow widths down to about 300–400mm, for example a 300×1,600mm Kompact model, which is ideal for hallways or between windows. Remember horizontal remains the most common format, but if floor-to-ceiling space is available a vertical unit gives the same convective performance in a much smaller width.

What finish and style choices are available and how do they affect the look?

T range includes different styles such as Compact, Planar and Kompact, plus cover options like lined covers or flat covers, and colours such as standard white and anthracite. For instance, Solaro offers Type 22 radiators in anthracite with either a lined or flat cover, and Stelrad's Planar has a smooth, contemporary front. These choices change the visual impact on your room — a flat or Planar front reads cleaner and more modern, while lined covers add texture — without changing the basic convective performance of the Type 22 units.

Are there child-friendly or low surface temperature Type 22 options?

Yes — the range includes LST (low surface temperature) models, such as the Stelrad LST i Plus K2 Type 22 items, which are designed to run with a cooler external surface. That makes them a better option in rooms used by children, the elderly or anyone who needs a safer touch temperature. Do note LST models are engineered to limit surface heat, so you may need a larger model to achieve the same room output as a standard Type 22 unit.
