Building interior wall, radiator in the way

[Caroline_lu]

Need to build an inner wall in the living room as we need to create an additional room in the house. One issue is that the radiator is in the way...

What is your best solution for creating an inner wall here?

Change radiator.

There are other clamps on the radiator that allow it to be shifted slightly sideways and the thermostat to stick forward. A bit uncertain with a photo angled from the side.

A plumber should be able to solve creating space, with the risk that the radiator won't be centered.

But.

You mention the radiator. If it is the only radiator in the room, it should be replaced with two slightly smaller ones, one in each room.

Neither solution should take a plumber more than half a day.

There are other brackets on the radiator that allow it to be shifted slightly sideways and the thermostat to protrude forward. A bit uncertain with a photo taken at an angle from the side.

A plumber should be able to solve providing space, with the risk that the radiator won't be centered.

But.

You write the element. If it is the only element in the room, it should be replaced with two slightly smaller ones, one in each room.

Neither solution should take a plumber more than half a day.

Thanks! I'll contact a plumber then... there are additional elements in the room. Not visible in the picture as the sofa is in the way...
