RADIATION TABLES
The output of a radiator is measured in square feet of radiation. To determine the number of
square feet of radiation in a radiator:
1. Measure the height of the radiator.
2. Count the number of columns in a section.
3. Count the number of sections.
Multiply the total number of sections by the number of square feet per section as
shown in the following tables:

Wall Type Radiators
Wall radiators are measured by their height, length and thickness. The following shows the
number of square feet of heating surface per section:
