You can route the piping to fit the unit.
i'm assuming your existing pipes come up through the floor. the water enters the bottom of the runtal unit at each end so you just pipe up and over (with 3/4" copper) to fit the locations of the runtal fittings. they look very good and hang on the wall, projecting out 2" from the wall. the height above the floor is determined by the piping coming out of the floor but they can be close to the floor or high on the wall, your choice.
Yes, you can go from 3/4" to 1/2" for the Runtal Baseboard unit and then increase to 3/4" for the other baseboard heaters on the same zone.
To calculate the amount of baseboard heaters needed for your space, we have a Baseboard Calculator that can used to determine this information. You can find this calculator on the following link on our website: http://calculators.pexsupply.com/baseboard_heat_calculator.asp
The radiator may be piped eight different ways. You can find more information in this Product Manual: http://s3.pexsupply.com/manuals/1283969620629/38900_PROD_FILE.pdf - No fittings are included with this unit; the unit has 1/2" NPT ports, so PEX adapters can be used to connect the radiator to PEX.
This unit has a low expansion rate, therefore it will produce minimal noise. In terms of sizing and BTU output of the baseboard, several factors play a role. These include: heat loss calculations, insulation of the room, and geographic area. Due to the numerous factors, we cannot recommend specific sizing.
