Are radiator covers a fire hazard?
No, radiator covers generally aren't a fire hazard if they are made from appropriate materials, such as metal or wood, and the radiator is functioning properly. Cloth covers can be dangerous and are typically best avoided. On 1stDibs, find a range of radiator covers.
