Outdoor water- heating convector

advantages and variations

This equipment is divided into three types:

  • with natural convection;
  • forced convection;
  • able to work in areas with high humidity.

The main benefits of underfloor heating converter include:

  • different design options (color, shape, material);
  • presence of heat exchangers made of copper and aluminum;
  • possibility to heat the room evenly.

Advantages and species

In order to uniformly heat the room, floor heaters must be installed in a parallel fashion, whereby the outlet air temperature of all the convectors will be the same.

There are special bimetallic heating radiators, details which can be found in another article.

Advantages and species

design, principle of operation and appearance

Floor heating convector looks like a large box.Its length can vary from 1 and up to 2 m. This box (body) easily fit into the interior of the room.They are also made to order based on the customer's wishes.

The housing is a heat exchanger (in some cases, there may be several).It is made of aluminum or copper.These materials are chosen without reason, they are characterized by good thermal conductivity.Floor heating convector has a high performance mainly due to the high quality heat exchangers.They heat is transferred to the air from the hot water heating system.Installation is simple and fast.Connection to the heating system takes place using a bellows.

To increase the inertia, the designers installed in the system chassis fan.The unit is quiet, with no noise exceeds 23 decibels.

few tips on how to choose the convector heating

choice of heating system is very important.At the same time, the following points should be considered:

  1. coolant temperature;
  2. air temperature;
  3. type of heating system (independent or central);
  4. amount of heat generation in the premises of different appliances.

A few tips on how to choose floor heating convector

Pay attention to the last paragraph.Gas stove, television and other appliances produce heat.If you take into account this fact and all the details have miscalculated, it is possible to order to save your money on the purchase.

General energy consumption and reliability of materials

Floor heating convectors made from durable materials.Thanks to their equipment can operate reliably for a long time.

As we said above, the heat exchangers are made of non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass).Proceeding from this set price.With this metals are not afraid of corrosion and other aggressive factors.However, they should be cleaned periodically (a few years).The case itself is made from a durable material, so it is resistant to physical and chemical strains.Stainless steel is used most often.On top of securing the grille, color and material of which the customer chooses.That is why it is easy to enter into the interior.

General energy consumption and reliability of materials

Now, it should be said about energy consumption.Each converter has an electric motor.Outdoor water heating converters are dvenadtsativoltovoe food.However, some engines operate from DC current source, and the other - the AC.The choice depends on the safety requirements.In areas with high humidity should install the equipment with an engine operating with a variable current source.This kind of engine not "afraid" of water.However, an analogue consumes 70% less power.

Despite its price, such floor convector heating is recommended to install both in new buildings and in buildings undergoing renovation.We advise, read the article on how to choose the right Bimetallic radiators.
