>water baseboard system that will radiate heat from a copper pipe run

I just moved into an apartment with baseboard heating. I was worried about
the heat of the fins, as well as the holes in the walls around the pipes. I
got some wire screening from Home Depot and a couple of 1x2 pine boards. I
screwed one piece of wood onto the top of the heater guard, and the other I
nailed to the floor. Then, I stretched the screen over the heating element
and stapled it on each board.
Looks like crap, but it keeps the ferrets out of it...
