Heaters Bathroom : infrared , wall , electric choice

How relevant is heating bathroom in the winter!Coming out of a warm bath or a warm shower, you want to find yourself in a similar warm place.And for families with children heating bathroom becomes mandatory.Basically, as the bathroom heating devices using heaters, radiators and batteries.Now, however, there are many other effective methods of heating bathrooms, which we will cover in this article.

absolutely all kinds of heaters for the bathroom must meet the following requirements:

1. They should be adapted to work in conditions of high humidity, that is protected against water spray, extreme temperatures and corrosion.
2. should occupy as little space as is usually the bathrooms are small size, and each area it already has its purpose.
3. obliged to have the necessary sufficient power to heat the bathroom.
4. power heater should be safe both for the room and for the people living in the home, especially children.
5. heating devices should look aesthetically pleasing and beautiful.It would be nice if they would match the style of the interior and does not spoil the overall background.

Fortunately, there are many devices for warming bathrooms.Let us examine them in detail.

replace the old heavy clog cast iron radiators, invented enough light, aesthetic-looking radiators of aluminum and copper. Unlike their predecessors, they quickly warmed up, and therefore the room heat in a shorter period of time. Radiators of this type are aluminum and copper-aluminum.Due to the design of the radiator required degree of humidity in the room is stored.They are cheaper and weigh much less than cast iron radiators, which simplifies the installation process.

differs from conventional electric heaters that heat the air in the room does not, and right walls and floor.The place of fixing the heater panel is a ceiling. the device consists mainly of the heat radiating quartz plate and the radiator.Heat to 260 ° C plate using a quartz oscillator directs infrared rays on the floor, walls, objects and people.

This unit does not take absolutely no place.It heats up quickly and turns off itself if the temperature reaches high.Another important advantage of the panel heater is that you can choose the direction of infrared rays, heating individual portions of a large bathroom or other room.This allows much more to save electricity, not waste it, but on specific subjects. Thus it can operate at any level of humidity.

As with other devices, a core part of the heater is a heating element consisting of a special powder Nichrome filament inside.Silumin heating part includes a housing which is shaped like a black glass ceramic panel.This device is considered a wall.Outwardly it looks quite stylish and modern.

Thanks to its modular design, you can change both the size and power of the device.Temperature control and regime change by means of a thermostat and control panel.Inside heater can heat up to 350 ° C, and the maximum body 60 ° C. The instrument is characterized by high electrical safety, and is suitable for use in wet rooms.

There is a modification of the heater, which works without infrared rays.It is also characterized by a modular design, but looks like a transparent panel with horizontal blinds. Warm air coming from the panels is similar to the warm air from the heater, with no moving parts and no noise in the device.

One of the most popular types of heaters are oil radiators.They can be seen in residential and private homes as well as offices.They are easy to mix, so often the bathroom warms it with the help of this instrument.They are safe and have a capacity of 1000-2500 watts. consists of a metal casing in which the electric coil.Other interior of the housing is filled with mineral oil.

Oil heaters are usually constructed of small metal sections, resembling the ribs.The strength of the heat transfer depends on their quantity.Automatic sensor regulates the temperature of the heat sink.In case of overheating, he stops, and the temperature is lowered, back includes a heater.

The advantages of such a heater is:

• high, but at the same time secure the maximum temperature (600 degrees Celsius);
• no sound;the presence of the self-timer;equipment with wheels, by which the radiator is easy to move from one place to another, and from one room to another.

Unsafe considered oil heaters which heat up to 1200 C, and it does not have a thermostat.Some models are equipped with an air ionizer.It provides moisture in the room air and prevents drying.

convector heater warms the residential, office and other premises.It has a capacity of up to 2500 watts. consists of a rectangular metal housing and the heating coil inside.Passing through the heating of the cold air is converted into heat.Returning to the radiator, the air heats the device itself.Convection heaters mounted on the floor and on the walls. Their efficiency is improved, if you put them down.

Models equipped with a heating element made of ceramics, do not burn the air.Also with regard to the bathroom produce special models, capable of operating at high humidity.Thus, the benefits of convector heater is: no noise at work, the possibility of movement, the speed of heating, extended temperature preservation, the possibility of connection of several panel heaters in a single network, economical waste of electricity, water-resistant housing, safety, beautiful design.

only drawback is the need for an internal fan, which is required to accelerate the process of warming the room.However, in this case, the device will operate with noise.We should also note the latest novelty among convector heaters, convector called film.Outwardly it looks like a roll, or hung on a wall or on a door or window.

Of course, this kind of heaters is the most simple and affordable in price and other parameters. This is the quickest way of warming of small spaces. Therefore, it is often put in the bathroom.Power heater ranges from 2000 to 2500 watts.Heaters come in different forms, but are usually small in size.

Thanks to compactness and ease of heaters can be installed on the floor and on the walls, and even on a flat surface of furniture or window sills.Heater consists of a plastic housing, the fan and the heating coil.Heat from the incandescent spiral (max reaches 800 degrees Celsius) by the fan is passed outwards, that is into the room.Thus, the benefits of heaters include: their rapid heating of the room, ease of operation, small size, attractive appearance.

The disadvantages include: annoying noise, which is published by the fan during operation, as well as unpleasant odor, which appears when the dust is collected in the spiral.

Represents equipment that draws fresh air from the street, making it warm and transmits it to the house.This task is performed by the pump's inventory. work of such a device is considered the most environmentally friendly, due to the fact that the instrument does not constitute a hazardous substance in the operation.

Its advantages primarily include the fact that in a single unit combined and heated appliance and air conditioning.Secondly, in the inverter air conditioner is the high rate of efficiency.Able to work in such conditions, when it's -20 degrees Celsius.The main disadvantage is their high cost.

Suffice usual option for heating rooms, besides it is compared with other types cheaper.Resistant to damage, durable and reliable option, which will serve for many years.The disadvantage is poor heat and heaviness.

is a very practical element for heating.Characterized by high heat dissipation, ease of installation and increased thermal inertia.The disadvantage is the sensitivity to moisture of the metal.

power of the heating device is its most important characteristic.It is in this indicator, you need to buy a heater for a room.To determine the capacity, it is necessary to know the area of ​​the room.

Below is a short list of indicators to the area you want to heat, and the power required for this:

1. 5-6 sq.m.It will need 500 watts.
2. for 7-9 sq.m.It will need 750 watts.
3. to 10-12 sq.m.need 1000 watts.
4. to 12-14 sq.m.need 1250 watts.
5. to 15-17 sq.m.need 1500 watts.
6. to 18-19 sq.m.need 1750 watts.
7. to 20-23 sq.m.need 2000 watts.
8. to 24-27 sq.m.need 2500 watts.

addition to the above methods of heating the bathroom, there are a few unusual ways:

• heating bath by a heated floor;
• using "hot skirting" of the system;
• heated towel rail.

first way implies support for a warm temperature in the bathroom with the help of a heated floor, which is carried out by means of electric cables laid loops in the floor layers. This method, like other methods has advantages and disadvantages.The disadvantages of a heated floor can be attributed, quite widespread doubts about the safety of electric current under his feet, that is, about the isolation and contacts;about electromagnetic fields, which can be harmful to health, as well as the cost of an expensive purchase and installation of such a system.In addition, it is required to increase the thickness of the existing floor for a few centimeters, which is undesirable for bathrooms from 2.5 meters to install a heated floor system.

The advantages of this method include comfort, ease of operation and reliability.Besides, called a doubt about the security of the system is not justified, and its normal operation warranty is 15 years.

Despite the fact that the system itself is not cheap, it is quite economical:

• thanks to the thermostat, heating is switched on for a short time.
• system evenly heats the entire bathroom and eliminates the need to set other heating devices, which occupy, if a little, it is enough space in the bathroom.

essence of the system is that instead of the usual baseboards on the floor premises fit the special section of the heating element inside that look like normal baseboard.Section made of porous stone, and they are characterized by high strength, stability and moisture resistance.This method of heating the bathroom is very effective and it does not take absolutely no place.

Distinguish polotontsesushiteli electrical and working on the principle of hot water heating.We can not say that they are well heat the bathroom, but they are able to maintain polozhitelnuya room temperature.They need to be combined with other methods of heating the bathroom.For example, with floor.

Before you buy a particular type of heater, first determine your budget and clearly specify your requirements to the heater.Do not forget about the general requirements for all heating methods.
