Horizontal Panel Radiators
Panel radiators are sleek, minimalist and provide excellent levels of heat. The tube carrying the hot water is surrounded by convector fins, which boosts the heat output of the radiator whilst maintaining a slim, flat aesthetic. They are perfect for narrow rooms as they don't protrude too much from the wall. You can buy single panel and double panel radiators depending on what aesthetic and heat output you require.
