I don't and won't be getting any, i can adjust the temperature of them on the boiler so they aren't hot to touch.

You don't have to have covers (I don't as I don't like the look of them), but do your risk assessment and make the changes that you can. Like turning the stat down on the rad or having it on high before the children arrive and then very low just to kept the temp up in weather like this.

I agree, I don't have radiator covers and just check that mine are hand touchable and check the thermostats everyday, I was advised to get individual thermostats on each radiator as it makes it easier to let some radiators be hotter than overs.

I dont have covers or thermostats (moved 5yrs ago) system will be updated later this year hopefully. If a rad is too hot I put a thick towel or blanket over it.
