radiators are mostly found here in apartments and condominiums

everything else has central heating and air-conditioning and they're consolidated into one system. one control panel on the thermostat.

These things. It's meant to heat rooms, but you can put clothes on top of them

It's looks some of those heaters you buy from the store, but naked and attached to a wall. Isn't that dangerous, kids?
Aren't you a Scandi? You mean you have state of the art prisons, but it's a pass on central heating :hmm:

Wow, TIL Americans don't have radiators... What the f*ck :williamswtf: Everywhere I've ever been had them IIRC. Except Dubai I think? But they don't need it for obvious reasons. I'm in disbelief.

@VixR @Tramo @Sovereign-Reiko Can one y'all sponsor me to the land of the free :wow:
We lived in a townhome and then a SFM. I haven't seen them b4, but it could be a geographical or regulatory thing. Even apartments I've seen didn't have em tbh. America isn't perfect. I'm sure Canada beats it on several metrics.

@VixR it's not really that dangerous for kids because the bars around the coils don't heat up enough for you to burn yourself and you can't actually put your hand deep enough to touch the source.

it's just a shitty way to heat a place up and you need them all along your house to emulate what central heating can do for you.

@VixR
I thought radiators = central heating but I guess it's just a form of central heating? We've got similar control options, except it doesn't cool. You pretty much set the temp and that's it. And as @Lmao said, they're not really dangerous. Worst thing I've heard of personally is my housemate getting drunk and falling asleep with his leg on the radiator and burn himself while it was heating up.

I had central cooling in Dubai but over here it's all radiators. Every room has one and they seem to get the job done. The only hazard I've heard of is them going off or exploding in house fire. Especially the older models that use gas

Y'all cracking weather jokes from Minnesota :comeon:

Atleast Minnesota is consistently cold as shit.

Here a 5° day is followed up by a 65° day only for it to snow heavily for the rest of the week.

It's beautiful out today, 60° (~15° for non Americans) but you just know we in for some hellish weather soon enough

:bell:

I don't think those 100 year old homes even have vents. Using radiators is likely the only option for them.
