Fitting a vertical rad after having hallway replastered and after a bit of digging about online, I have two options for plumbing it in as pipes are easily accessible beside the rad, not been boxed in yet.
1.Plumb it traditionally with flow/return at the bottom, this would require me buying the optional flow diverter as this rad has no orientation or internal baffle/diverter
2. Plumb it with the flow coming in at top and return at the bottom on the same side of the rad for neatness. I know the general rule is to go top/bottom/opposite sides but would this really matter as the rad is only 400mm wide?
No trv here as in the hallway so don't need to worry about the trv being on the return either.
Pics attached for explanation, cheers.
