Herein, what is the difference between a Type 21 and Type 22 radiator?

The main difference between Type 21 and Type 22 radiators is the layers of fins, also known as the number of convectors. Type 21 convector radiators feature 2 panels which encase a single layer of fins. A Type 22 radiator is therefore generally wider than a Type 21 radiator.

do double radiators make a difference? The main difference with a double panel convector radiator is that it can emit more heat, and quicker, than a single panel radiator. More efficient still is the double panel double convector, with two rows of parallel convector fins.

Additionally, what is a Type 22 double panel radiator?

With two sets of fins, and both front and back panels, the Type 22 convector radiator gives the highest heat output of the three sizes. If depth is a concern, consider a type 21 radiator but in a slightly longer or higher size to match the heat output.

What are the different types of radiators?

Radiator Types

• Single Panel Radiators. Single 'panels' (think of them as 'hot water containers' instead) are your basic radiator.
• Double Panel Radiators. Double panel radiators are two single panels stacked against each other (for roughly twice the power) and mounted to your wall.
• Column Radiators.
• Heated Towel Rails.
