Unusual small-sized heating heated skirting

In the market of heating systems is a relatively new product, which became a great alternative to traditional heating systems, warm skirting.

This compact heating system belongs to the category of radiant panel heaters. Such devices transfer heat from the coolant to the walls and floors, from which, in turn, heats the air in the room. Heat is distributed along the wall slowly and evenly, forming a kind of thermal protection that prevents the penetration of cold air into the room.

Warm or heating the plinth is a small metal structure with a width of 3 cm and a height of 14 cm, with heating element inside. Set on a plinth wall around the perimeter of the room, and replaces the usual wooden or plastic.

The heat exchange module inside of the plinth represent the copper pipe with impaled on them slats that create the stability of the structure, and the whole system is closed with a demountable aluminum boxes. Panel protective boxes made of extruded aluminum profile evenly distributes heat along the length of the floor.

Baseboard heating is suitable for rooms of various purposes and sizes — from private homes and garages, to offices, stadiums and temples. It can be as basic and secondary.

By way of baseboard heating systems are divided into water and electric.

The principle of operation of the water-baseboard - heat-carrier is a liquid, water or antifreeze circulating in the internal circuits of the heating system. Connects the system to the individual boiler or Central heating system. Here the liquid is heated, and then under pressure through the distribution manifold and the inlet pipe is directed into the heating system. With this method of heating the room temperature can be adjusted manually on the control manifold or using automated thermostats installed in the room.

Electric baseboard works by using tubular electric heating elements (Heaters), made of heat-resistant materials. The operation of the heating elements is regulated by an electronic or Electromechanical thermostat with a built-in sensor temperature control.

The installation of the thermal skirting is made after finishing of the room. For electric baseboard system provides the following sequence of actions. To the installation of the plinth is supplied power supply. For marking on the clean surface of the wall is glued to the tape width of 3 mm at a height of not less than 1 cm from the floor. Then alternately install the lower panel of the protective box and the top with the holders mounted on the distance of 40 cm from each other. In a copper pipe of the heating system are the heating elements, the total power should not exceed 3.6 kW.





For water systems warm the floor, after the installation of all elements — lead plastic pipes, electric cables from power sources to the thermostats, the modules are connected to the corresponding pins, crimping is carried out (rinsing) heating system, setting up automation, commissioning.

One of the main advantages of baseboard heating system of premises is to create the most comfortable environment for humans. The optimum temperature of the indoor air is 20-24 degrees, and it is the same at the level of the ceiling and floor.

Experts say that a warm plinth, like water and electric, more fuel-efficient compared with conventional radiators. So, warm water baseboard uses at least twice less fluid and electricity to heat it. Warm electric baseboard consumes 40 percent less energy than a conventional battery.

Radiant panel heating creates optimal indoor humidity and prevents the formation of condensate does not dry the air inside the home and does not allow heat to go out. Warm plinth is safe for the home. Near heaters do not crack the furniture, you can install equipment, potted plants, hang long curtains.

Great scope for imagination baseboard heating gives designers in interior design projects. Color exterior elements warm the floor can be very different in color and texture appropriate to any style solution in the interior.

Warm plinth is the perfect solution for apartments with panoramic Windows where a traditional heating system ineffective.

Have the "Warm plinth" and disadvantages, the main of which is high cost. Price of one meter with the set of all essential elements is about $ 100. In addition, installation of warm skirting must perform, only specialists with experience of similar work. Well, finally, after the installation of a warm floor is not recommended to use a large amount of furniture, which prevents the spread of infrared rays or, in other words, radiant heating.
