Plumbing Estimate for Radiator Removal
Does anybody have an idea about this job .
It is a new subject for me
To remove kitchen and bathroom heating elements, wall boxes and cap off lines inside wall.
It is hot water heat.
Comments
Not much help on price, but wondering ... are you going with forced air heat? What will the new heat be? Thanks!

The 2 units have not been working for years.
I am closing the wall.
In its place i would like to try nutone electric heat.
remember the rooms are used for a short while only.

Thanks, I actually do have some info. from our renovation.
To drain an entire 3 storey hot water system, cut out all old pipes and radiators and install new copper pipe, cost = $10k so yours should be much much less than that!

This shouldn't be a costly job ($500 or so), but removing radiators can sometimes affect the flow and balance of the other radiators (if any) in the line of those being removed.

it is a little box inside the wall with a small grill covering it.
The same in the kitchen.
It is in an apartment inside a post war high=rise building.
