: Probably more likely 'radiator' — it might be the section that heats the radiators, say, instead of the hot water; or a boost stage. Furnaces don't usually radiate directly.

: that's "combustion chamber", not "rad" ... : http://www.mainewoodfurnaces.com › ... › // et bien non - "rad" ne veut pas dire "chambre de combustion". En plus, votre référence concerne un poêle de masse, pas une chaudière.

Le demandeur parle de: 'This is a part of a wood furnace. The document says the furnace has a "secondary rad section". Oui cela veut aussi dire combustion chamber. Vous voyez ça où le mot 'boiler' (chaudière)?

Note that 'rad' is pronounced with a short 'a', just like 'radiator' (US pronunciation!); were it to stand for 'radiant', it would have to be pronounced with a long 'a' (= sounds like 'raid') in order to match 'radiant' — only it isn't!
'rad' is a common form for 'radiator' — it's no longer even really an abbreviation, everyone just calls them 'rads'; seems likely if this is a central-heating boiler (and the word 'furnace' is used differently in the US and GB, hence my question)
