    Apparently, old refurbished radiators are also worth a lot more than their scrap value. I'm in the flooring business. Last summer I had a job in a turn of the century home tearing out the old flooring and subfloor and putting in new. Told the owner I could do a better job for him if the rads were removed and re-installed once the new flooring was in. For budget reasons he didn't want to bother. I checked further with a plumber friend of mine about what would be involved. He said it would be best to work around the rads because if you break one taking it out, it could be $2,000.00 + to get a refurbished replacement. Not what I wanted to hear, but quite an eye opener.
