By what parameters should the choice of the radiator for the home? Of course, you should first deal with its type. It can be cast -iron, aluminum or bimetallic, tubular steel or panel steel.
Of course, the cast -iron radiator – the battery of an accordion – is familiar to everyone since childhood – it differs in great weight and excellent heat capacity, not intended for high pressure, but not afraid of rust. The aluminum radiator has a huge heat transfer and reacts well to temperature change, intended for increased pressure. The steel radiator is characterized by low heat transfer, slightly less ambulance to temperature change. Tubular radiators compared to panel are intended for a higher working pressure (12 bar verso 8). There are also steel design radiators, which are essentially similar to tubular, but are also characterized by an excellent appearance.
What to focus on when buying? Of course, for prices – aluminum radiators are cheaper than steel and cast iron in terms of kilowatts of heat. In other words, when buying a radiator, you need to look at its power. It depends on the temperature of its surface. The powerful radiator has a low surface temperature, on a weaker – very high. Of course, this has its pros and cons of. For example, you can burn about him. In addition, this is not so comfortable. It is believed that it is better to give preference to low -temperature heating.
Finally, you should choose safe radiators for the home, especially if there is a small child. Even if you pick up safe thermal electrical devices, you should definitely carry out explanatory work and never leave the baby unattended next to such an aggregate.
