Since the heating equipment appeared — cast -iron batteries, after radiators and many others, have not passed small times. In today’s days, thanks to new technologies, the heating system is developing and becoming more effective and economical.
The theme of today is a warm skirting board or two hares of one bullet. Let’s talk about a new possibility of heating your home, apartment or office.
The recently emerged term “warm skirting” means the meaning of heating the house from below. This word is supposed to be a new technology for heating the premises: apartments in a high -rise building, office, private house or store, full implementation is available.
Manufacturers of warm skirting boards offer a wide range of product. Due to the similarities in appearance with a classic skirting board, you can replace it around the entire perimeter of the room, while not creating problems associated with the arrangement of furniture. Such compact sizes of the profile allows you to effectively use the space. As they say, “Two Hares are one bullet”, the house has one element with two functions.
The design in the form of a skirting board hides a heating element in itself. Inside are the circulating two channels operating on the basis of a liquid (water or other coolant) or electricity.
The advantage of the system is the lack of an active convention. He distinguishes warm air along the entire length of the “skirting board” and the air, walls, floor, objects and at the end reaches the ceiling with a slow movement. Notice, heat first occurs over the entire surface of the wall and floor and only then rises upward. Due to the low convention, the distribution of heat occurs slowly and evenly.
The better the design?
When studying a warm skirting board, I realized that the system has easy control and does not allow irrational overrun of the source of thermal resource. If you compare with traditional heating methods, its advantages win. For example, central heating radiators, oil radiators or t. p. Heating devices, regardless of the location, first heated the ceiling and then heats to the main consumers, that is, to us. This happens because often heating systems have a high convention and quickly warm up air. And already heated air is trying to quickly rise up.
In this regard, the skirting heater works slowly and due to the large heating area. But this is in our favor, that is, the low “warm skirting” begins to heat the air from the bottom under the corner direction. As already said, due to a large area of a relatively long and narrow skirting board, the air warms up slowly and rises slowly. At this time, walls, furniture, etc. D. Когда создается желаемый «тепловой экран» (расположенный теплый плинтус по периметру создает некий экран), систему можно отключить или поставить на низкую температуру, чтобы она не работал по полной программе, а поддерживала нужную температуру.
The installation of a warm skirting board is similar to the installation of a conventional skirting board. Furniture covering the corners of the room can be bypassed on the basement. For example, walls in the hallway, cabinets in the kitchen have a part that we call a conditional base. The dimensions of the «plinth» (height 14 cm, width 3 cm) just make it possible to bypass ledges or islands.
With electric heat skirting, heating in an apartment in a high -rise building would cost much cheaper than central heating. Since we cannot abandon the main heating, we accept the warm skirting board as additional and we can install for insulation of the balcony, bathroom or in another necessary room.
In private houses, “warm skirting boards”, which works on the basis of water or other liquid is more than optimal. Because the structure can be attached to the boiler with any fuel source. At the same time, the working pressure of the structure is 2 -3 atmospheres.
The advantages of the system:
• saving heating costs up to 40%;
• installation as complete or additional heating;
• uniform heat distribution;
• is not burning and safe to closely located subjects.
• Compactness and inevitable appearance.
Some sources say that the plinth body can be painted. But when manufacturers offer different colors, it is better to choose the color at once, corresponding to the interior.
