Radiators under windows.

Sparkingchip
Should electric or central heating radiators be installed under windows?

    It is interesting that it seems the common consensus is that under windows is the place to install radiators.


    Apart from the possible waste of heat, placing electric heaters under windows has to be potentially dangerous as they may be covered with curtains if the users of the heaters don’t have the good sense not to cover them, as I have seen happen.
