Quality Short Princess/School cast iron radiator taken from an original design. Manufactured using traditional techniques and guaranteed for 10 years.
Height is 560mm from floor to top of radiator.
All radiators supplied fully assembled to maximum widths shown.
Distance from floor to centre of valve inlet/bush is 100mm.
Also available in a tall version.
Key PointsIn order to assist and advise our customers, it is important to note, as all our radiators are cast using traditional methods and casting moulds, there will be slight imperfections and fettling marks on our radiators and this is how we have always wanted to supply them.
This is because we are passionate about wanting to supply our cast iron radiators which have the appearance and authenticity of being many many decades old, but with the features and guarantees associated with that of a modern radiator.
An important point to note for some..... The lighter the colour of your radiator the more these slight marks will possibly be noticed due to shadowing etc and the lighter colours such as Cream White are likely to require touching up more often to keep free from accidental scuffs and knocks.
On the other hand, for obvious reasons, the darker the colour, the more forgiving and less likely these marks will be noticed and as such, these are much easier to ensure the always look in 'Tip Top' condition.
We bought 9 radiators from CIRC. We made an error initially in sizing 1 radiators when they were made and sent. CIRC allowed us to return 1 radiator and order additional radiators, they provided relevant refund very promptly. All the above was no trouble whatsoever to CIRC and frankly good old fashioned customer service we are not used too! We highly recommend CIRC and many many thanks to Steve & Paul for your invaluable help!

Guarantees & Conditions of Sale - Click Here!
Our Cast Iron Radiators are guaranteed for a period of 10 years, Valves for 2 years and all other products (excluding reclaimed products or where specified) for 1 year from the date of the Purchaser’s invoice to be free from any manufacturing defects. The Company will replace any goods found faulty due to manufacturing or workmanship defects, free of charge within this period, subject to the following exceptions:
Defective goods will be repaired or replaced subject to the following conditions:
We always advise you to wait for your cast iron radiators to be onsite before working out pipe work and pipe centres widths. This is because cast iron is not an exact product and because each radiator is hand assembled there will always be slight discrepancies as indicated on each radiator page in the lengths of same style & size radiators.
However, we appreciate that occasionally some prep work may need to be carried out prior to your order arriving onsite and that approximate pipe centre measurements may be required for first fix purposes.
Therefore, and strictly as a guide only, we would say for the approximate pipe centres for each cast iron radiator, to add on the approximate measurements listed on the table below to the overall length of the radiator shown on the Specification tab.
For the approximate measurement off the skirting board or wall if no skirting is used to the Pipe Centre we suggest half the depth of the cast iron radiator + 10mm as a minimum.
For the approximate ‘outside valve to outside valve measurement’ (the minimum measurement to be able to operate the valves freely) you should add approx 150mm/6.0” to the length indicated for each radiator in the Specification tab, however this measurement will vary depending on the valve that is fitted.

Short Princess 2 Column 560mm Cast Iron RadiatorThese radiators are beautiful, particularly in an old Victorian house. They arrived in good time and the driver very helpful. Even though these are small radiators, they are really heavy. Excellent price and service from CIRC.

Review by: Rob
Worth every pennyThis was the second room I’ve added cast iron rads into and chose these due to the height. They fit perfectly in our Victorian house and are a real statement. We went for 2 x 13 column to add a real wow to the room. They are very heavy but this was expected. They are a must and great value for money.
Review by: Jackie G
Very HappyThis is the second radiator we have ordered. Really impressed with the radiator and service on both occasions.
Review by: Lukeio
Hot and heavy!!!So happy with these classic looking radiators. Had the whole house fitted with central heating and these rads throughout. The quality for the price is excellent and the heat they give out is fantastic. You're hard pressed to find this type of rad cheaper anywhere else. We went for a mixture of short and tall depending on room size and placement area. Very happy with the CIRC service and communication throughout. Two things I would note, firstly they are bloody heavy so make sure you have enough help to move them. Secondly if you find you need to add or remove sections dont forget you can buy a tool from CIRC to remove or add. We found 1 rad was to long for the area it was intended, not a problem if you have the tool as you can just take a section out.

Cast iron princess radiatorsI have had several of these installed in my Victorian property over the past few years. They are beautiful pieces and always get lots of comments. They also keep the house toasty and warm so winning all round. Very happy with them and the customer service from CIRC which has always been great even when we’ve had minor issues (one of our thermostatic valves was faulty but no quibbles they replaced it and refunded my postage). Only thing I’d be aware of is the curb side drop which is a pain if you haven’t got an army of strong people to heft them inside! We ordered thermostatic valves and chrome bleed valves with the radiators (as well as pipe shrouds and wall fixers) which really finish them off beautifully. Really really happy with the overall look.

Classic Looking RadiatorVery pleased, classic classy look perfectly suited to the Oak Frame House Build!
Review by: Graham Bell
Excellent service and productThis is my second radiator that I have purchased and this one was installed in our lounge after the "warming experience" of the one in our renovated bedroom
There is just no comparison with normal steel panel radiator, both in looks and heat efficiency. The ability for cast iron radiators to slowly release heat and keep a lovely constant warm temperature must not be underestimated.
Would highly recommend Cast Iron Radiator Co
Review by: Alison Youson
PrincessI ordered this princess short radiator as I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. It was made in a very timely manner and is absolutely amazing. Everyone who comes to the house comments on it
I’m so happy with it. Cast iron radiator centre gets a massive thumbs up from me and would highly recommend them
Review by: Rachel
Lovely radiatorLovely radiator, looks great in my dining room and exactly the look we wanted. Really good quality, be warned these are very heavy! Makes the room really really warm. Excellent delivery, emailed when despatched and then a local courier company contacted me to arrange delivery. Would not hesitate to order more from this company.
Review by: Andrew Brechin
FantasticVery pleased with this - it has transformed my room and added a little bit of 'industrial chic' to my lounge. Longer to heat up than a standard rad, but the pay-off is that it remains hot, long after the heating has gone off. Planning to buy more, very happy.

Lovely radiatorI ordered the Short Princess 2 column 560mm radiator painted in pewter and collected it to save delivery costs, as I lived nearby. It's worth visiting if you can, as the architectural yard they have is full of great stuff (I bought an oak coal skuttle as well as the radiator).
The style and finish are fantastic - it really looks good in my Art Deco furnished home.
Be prepared for how heavy the radiators are though! This was relatively small, at only 1 metre long, but was very tiring getting it up to the third floor flat where I live.
However, it is worth it. I had it installed yesterday and it looks so much better than the steel panel raditor it replaced. It throws off enough heat as well, thanks to the BTGU / size calculator provided by the website.

Excellent cast iron radiatorHave just ordered 8 of these in different sizes for my home - they are seriously heavy handsome pieces of kit. Really high quality and well finished (in gunmetal grey). All the accessories were also top quality - saved at least 50% on the items at the plumbers trade counter. Very good customer services. Highly recommend this company and product

Product & SupportHello,
I'd just like to share my feedback from my recent order.
I was thoroughly impressed with both the product and the service I received from you guys. When I had technical questions about how to paint the radiators myself, or how to attach a wall stay, you were quick and happy to help me. When I also had a technical problem with one of our radiators, you quickly sent out a replacement part for free and this was really great to see - out of all the suppliers we've used during our house refurb, you've been by far the best to work with, so many thanks for that.
I'll be sure to order from you guys again when we need some more cast iron radiators.
Thanks again,
Peter
