Electric heating convectors

briefly about what "elektrokonvertorĀ»

air conversion is used in almost all heating appliances.It would seem that any electrical appliances for heating can be called an electric converter.But this is not so.If you go to the terminology, it is called an electric heat converter heater, which uses its own heating element to heat the air.Thus, the oil and water heaters fall into a different category.

Briefly about what is " electroconvector "

In fact, it is a modern elektrokonvertor:

  • heating controller;
  • Low temperature heating element;
  • Protective and decorative casing;
  • radiator-heat exchanger.

addition of step controllers and dimmers are also using thermostats.They maintain the room temperature automatically, so the presence of the thermostat is quite useful.

gaining increasing popularity of ceramic heaters.They look like a solid plate with low-temperature heating element.Mounted on the wall, and by providing infrared heat.

Varieties panel heaters, their location and extras

By type of heating element, electric heating convector divided into spiral and ceramic.Spiral cheap and has been used for many years, but it is not durable.Pottery is durable and looks beautiful.Of course, because of this, its price is considerably higher.

Variety of panel heaters , their location and extras

Electric converter a room downstairs.

  • mobile version can be installed anywhere in the room.
  • Wall currency fixed at the bottom of the wall, mostly under window to avoid glass fogging
  • recessed floor option has an important advantage - unobtrusiveness.Located on the ground level and closed grille.

thermostat above relates to additional functions.Control modules are also complementary.With their help, you can set a certain temperature on the control panel.Yet there are programmers.They allow you to specify not only the temperature, but also to change its schedule.

advantages and disadvantages of electric converters

Before you make a choice and the purchase of an electric converter, should be familiar with its advantages and disadvantages.

The advantages include:

  • Easy installation in the case of floor and wall-mounted version.
  • lack of need for maintenance.Suffice it to monitor the cleanliness of the surface.
  • Long life, at least 20 years.
  • High efficiency is close to 100%.
  • not cause environmental harm.
  • not high, and therefore a safe temperature of the enclosure.
  • Quiet.
  • Quick warm room.
  • Affordable price, which corresponds to the quality.

Advantages and disadvantages of electric convectors

The disadvantages include:

disadvantage, as such, only one - the dependence on thermal energy.It is not cheap, and not everywhere.Furthermore, electric converter divides the room temperature is uneven.The larger the room, the greater the difference.

Alternative

  • heaters - the impeller blows spiral, whereby the room warms up quickly.They are cheap and compact, but consume a lot of energy and reduce the room atmosphere of the combustion air in an open helix.
  • film floor.The film presents itself under any floor covering.Gender is heated to 25-30 gr.Ts.The heat is distributed evenly and efficiently.However, the need to remove the cover and carry out the floor insulation.The costs will be significant.
  • Infrared heaters.Heat all the objects around and the human body, due to which the room temperature is perceived higher.The main disadvantage - the distance.The farther away the heater, the significantly colder.
