Great design, a bit of glue would have helped the slat corner joints, am a afraid because there is no glue the joints will move and the filler will crack. A great job though.

shouldnt you have left larger gaps between the boards? Im concerned that most of the heat will be trapped inside the cover. Also, the thermostats regulates itself relative to the temperature in the room yea? I reckon it's gonna mess up since it's obviously gonna be warmer inside the cover as opposed to the actual room temperature. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!
@LouiseHenryHome Жыл бұрын
No the gaps are large enough to let the warm air pass through. It doesn’t hold the heat in whatsoever and the hallway is just as warm as before we installed it. We have a separate thermostat to control the heating so it the radiator cover doesn’t affect that at all

Beautiful job btw. question. do you keep this on the radiator while it's on? I live in a pre war building which we do not control the thermostat & i'm concerned that anything i build over the radiator will either peel or worst case catch fire, Im thinking what i should do to makes it fire proof.
@LouiseHenryHome Жыл бұрын
Yes we keep it on. I didn’t attach it to the wall so we could slide it out to adjust the thermostat. It doesn’t touch the radiator at all so it should be fine 😊

@LouiseHenryHome Жыл бұрын
Yes I worked it out roughly before and built the frame to be the correct size for my slats and leave a gap as well 😊
@rdb4996 Жыл бұрын
Very nice. HOWEVER, please remember to be SAFE. Your fingers near that nail gun made me nervous. Just keep your fingers away from it, even if you are sure the nail won't go through and that you won't accidentally put it in crooked (coming out on the top). Also, hair up and ideally safety glasses. We want to see more cool DIY, not a vlog from hospital 😉

actually this is bad for the circulation. the gaps need to be wider tho... function over design is always the best choice here.. especially when the prices are getting higher and higher...

Hi nice job but sorry 😢 how do you get to the knob 1 and if you leaves it on for winter no much heat I believe you should leave some space between each Planck and a visiting space to get to the knob sorry to tell you that but it is my own opinion in place of that the job is nice
