Dumbest radiator installation i've seen in awhile!

This radiator installation takes the cake for the dumbest installation i've seen recently. The radiator mounted in the ceiling of the kitchen of this school is a Shaw Perkins radiator. The Shaw Perkins is really a convector instead of a radiator. It does a bang up job of creating convection air currents but doesn't do squat for radiation. The people at the school actually had to add ceiling fans to try and get the heat to come back down from the ceiling. A ceiling radiator is dumb to start with, but a ceiling mounted convection style radiator is really dumb. The place was designed this way too! That means a licensed engineer came up with that!
