    Finally got into check my flat out only to find that their was a radiator in a placed i did think it would be. See image above.

    While I probably know the answer all ready is it a good idea to put an LCD above a radiator?

    Also if you werent going to chase the wall what other options do you have for hiding the cables?

    I was thinking of maybe a good quality electrical conduit if such a thing exisits

    How about moving the radiator over behind the door?

    From looking at the photo it shouldn't be too hard to do it. It's only screwed to the floor. Would probably just need longer power leads. Talk to the electrician that did the job. If he's still working on the site then he could probably do it pretty quick for you. He'd also have a good idea about moving cables etc. to the place you want - since he'll already know where they've been dropped down.

    Just on the builders and new apartments thing. There's some really braindead ones out there - Mate was havin a look at his apartment before the snag,They had installed the NTL junction box,socket and phone line about 3/4 way up the wall expecting he would be buying a brand new LCD for the new gaff.When he told them he was keeping his CRT tv their reply was - "Ah sure just put a picture up infront of the junction box!"
