Radiators can be the source of a love-hate relationship for residents of Columbia Housing or University Apartment Housing.
These outmoded heating elements invariably are off when you need them and on when you don't. When they're on, though, they are quite effective. However, most are unadjustable, since they are centrally controlled in many buildings.
