They make a room look spacious. If the cast iron is in good shape and not rusted through, keep it. Iron pipe is much more durable. Are your walls plaster or drywall? Stippling the ceiling and a nice wallpaper border at the top of a wall can do a lot to improve a living space. Its a waste in a bedroom if you ask me, but enough people like it that you see it pretty often. xponent Remove The Walls, Let In More Light!!!!!
