Iannarelli Coach House Fin Tube

This fin tube radiator was about 20 feet in length and was originally installed with about 50 to 60 linear feet of fin tube installed in series. This meant that every foot of pipe was fed water that was cooler than the preceeding foot of pipe received. We repiped this radiator and installed the three runs of fin tube as a manifold. This way each run of fin tube, now only 20 feet long, receives the same temperature of water. The owner said it wouldn't heat the room on the colder days, but should be much better now.
