With the onset of cold weather, in country houses and modern apartments, there may be a need for additional heating. If wooden Russian houses are heated with stoves, then apartments and brick buildings may be deprived of this advantage. In this case, heating radiators or convectors come to the rescue. Their principle of operation is based on the use of water, which must be constantly present inside the system, otherwise, this can lead to the destruction of the radiator.
There are several types of convectors .
- Aluminum radiators are lightweight and can be cast or extruded. The main difficulty lies in maintaining a constant PH level in the system, as they are sensitive to changes in the acidity of the environment.
- Steel radiators are still very popular, as they organically fit into almost any design.
- A special group is occupied by bimetallic heating devices, which are specially designed to work in high pressure conditions. Experts note that they are easy to assemble and disassemble, as well as to be used both in residential and non-residential premises.
In addition to the above, there are other types of convectors that are no less useful in the household. For example, a convector built into the floor or skirting board. They are used in cases where wall mounting is not possible for some reason. This innovation came from the American continent, so the age of its application in Russia is relatively small, ten years. However, it helps to heat large areas.
