Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Think of radiators and you don't tend to think of sexy, radical design - after all, they are just the white slabs of metal bolted to the wall that gurgle once in a while. But like just about everything else in the home, radiators have undergone a transformation. Now they can be beautiful objects in their own right.
Single rads can be integrated into an existing central heating system, (they must be fixed to the wall). If you don't have a heating system, many designs are also available as electric heaters, and there are also a number of portable plug-in versions. The best position for a radiator is in the coldest part of the room, which is usually under the window.
