Double Panel Radiators are a highly efficient heating solution designed to deliver powerful warmth in larger rooms. Commonly referred to in the trade as Type 21 Radiators also known as P+, or Type 22 radiators denoted as K2 radiators, these double panel radiators feature two panels and two sets of convection fins, where as type 21 only have 1 set of convection fins, allowing for superior heat output compared to single panel options. Perfect for spaces that require consistent and quick heating, double panel radiators are celebrated for their ability to heat up large areas effectively, making them a popular choice for living rooms, kitchens, and open-plan spaces. With their sleek design and impressive performance, they offer both style and comfort, ensuring your home stays cosy and inviting all year round.
Double panel radiators provide your space with powerful heat outputs and classic style. Unlike the single panel radiators, double panel radiators are well suited for bigger spaces that need a good amount of heat. Here at Designer Radiators Direct, we are very proud of our selection of double panel radiators and we know you won’t be disappointed by these impressive heating units.
Double panel radiators feature two radiator panels and 1 or 2 convection fins, which significantly increase the heat output. This makes them perfect for larger or less insulated spaces, where a higher BTU (British Thermal Unit) rating is needed to maintain comfortable warmth. Double panel radiators can heat up quickly and efficiently, making them ideal for both large rooms and open-plan living areas.
Our Type 22 radiators, also known as K2 radiators, are the highest heat output radiators, featuring two sets of convection fins. This additional surface area increases heat distribution and ensures rapid warmth throughout the room. If you're looking for a slightly more compact solution, our Type 21 or P+ radiators, with one set of fins, provide efficient heating for smaller rooms or those with moderate insulation needs.
Double panel radiators offer a range of benefits that make them an excellent choice for heating larger rooms and improving energy efficiency throughout your home.

Double panel radiators have panels and the front and the back of the radiator unlike single panels that just have the one panel at the front. To learn about the differences between single and double radiators please see our blog.
Due to the double design, double panel radiators do produce higher heat outputs than their single counterparts, this is because double panels have more surface area to heat which then emits heat into your room.
Yes of course! If you find a single panel radiator isn’t heating your room effectively enough then you can switch to a double panel instead. Double panels are stronger than single panels so be sure to check the btu required to heat your space first with our BTU calculator to ensure the double is efficient enough.
