Modern Steam Radiators

In midst of reno, and have a couple of rooms with huge radiators that take up a fair amount of space that we'd rather use for furnishings. We're considering replacing the original units with more modern wall mount ones that will give us back some square-footage on the floor. Are there companies other than Steam Radiators that do this? (We have a steam system). Does anyone have experience with these? Thanks.

Check out http://www.ocsind.com/cast_iron.html
and http://www.heatdepotengineers.com/products
The latter shows only hot water on their site, but I think they do steam also. Give them a call and ask.

Unfortunately, Aside from those and Steam Radiators, there are not a lot of options when it comes to steam heat.

It's something I've searched for many times, but have yet to find a good solution for. If you find something, by all means, post it here.

Try Runtal. They've been around for years and well known in Europe. http://www.runtalnorthamerica.com/steamlink.html

Runtal only deals with hot water. Their sister company is Steam Radiator, which does steam, and which the OP has already looked at.

JB, I've installed a few of the wall mount steam radiators and so far they've worked out well. A lot depends on your application, how big the room is, piping configurations, etc..
