Plumbing prices for central heating radiators
Sometimes radiators corrode, leak or get blocked and need replacing. Or maybe the radiator is too big or small for the room. In which case the entire central heating system may need draining down, the old radiator removing and a new one installing. The central heating system can then be re-filled, perhaps including some chemical agents to reduce the risk of rust and lime scale build up. These are prices people have paid to either have an existing radiator replaced or a new one fitted. The cost will vary with the number, type and size of radiator and the difficulty in integrating them into the existing central heating system. the price includes materials and labour rates unless otherwise stated in the price description.
