Entrust a reliable technician and they will complete the assembling and the installation task by performing the following activities:
- All the necessary measurements will be taken. It is critically important to measure the depth, height and width of the radiator and add a few free inches. Considering the thermostat, the valves etc. is also essential.
- Then the materials, that should be bought will be discussed. Although most radiator cabinets are made of wood, you can opt for another preferred material – fiberboard, MDF, Veneered plywood – they have gained considerable popularity recently, plus, they are durable and aesthetically looking.
- The quality of the materials is critical for achieving the desired results. They should be kept in dry, cool places.
- If the main, reason for installing a radiator cabinet assembling is protecting your kids, let the technician know so they can ensure there are no sharp edges.
- Another thing that is worthy of mentioning is the sheet of grating that has to be installed. The heat from the radiator has to escape from the box so opt for a sheet of metal that has small holes in it. Every experienced technician would recommend galvanized steel so the heat will be radiated back to the room.
