You have not indicated what size the rooms are
Here are some tips:- Place radiators where you would be unable to put furniture. Builders put them under windows, so as to prevent you from having long curtains.
I always put them behind the door as you enter, and talking of doors, builders used to hang doors the "wrong" way, if your house has this arrangement, get a joiner to reverse them, I did and transformed the rooms.
Footnote.. Get an electrician to transfer the light switches.
Generally as a rule of thumb get radiators that are slightly too powerful for the space, and fit thermostats on them.
When installing a CH system make sure that the installer puts inhibitor into the system, they save £15 by not doing so.
Go to a plumbers merchant and get a free leaflet on radiators, preferably modern convector types with a smart top, go for doubles ,they are more attractive looking.
