Stop in for a cup of coffee

I have both. And a wood stove. Radiators are just baseboard though. Not like the cast iron ones. Have lived in a few houses that had big old cast type. I believe all were hot water, not steam. I do recall having to bleed the air off manually on some.

Either my parents or the previous owners had replaced the living room tall cast iron radiators with baseboard versions. They never worked great - I think not enough mass, less surface radiation and not as efficient in getting natural conduction of the air to spread the heat to the room. Might have been a little better when the furnace was still coal fired.
