Heat Loss Hub
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than the DT50 rating printed on a radiator datasheet. Enter your flow temperature and room heat losses to find the DT50 output each radiator must be rated at.

Method: MWT = flow − 2.5K (5K ΔT). Radiator ΔT = MWT − room temp. Output factor = (ΔT/50)^1.3 to EN442. Required DT50 output = heat loss ÷ factor ÷ 0.96 for bottom-opposite-end pipework, rounded up. BTU/hr = W × 3.412.
