The radiator is one of the main elements of the heating system. It is he who creates the necessary temperature in the room. Therefore, the choice of a radiator must be approached extremely competently. The first thing you need to pay attention to is the characteristics, and then take into account the price and appearance. So how to choose a good radiator in a private house? Which product is suitable and which is not? Let's get it right.
It is rather difficult to give a clear answer to the question of which radiators are suitable and which are not. To understand the essence, you need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each battery. And we will consider, guided by the design and properties of the material.
There are currently four radiator designs.
- Sectional.
The battery consists of several separate links that can be removed and added. In addition, these batteries have a stylish design that fits almost any interior. The disadvantage is the many joints in which the battery may be depressurized.
- Tubular.
The original appearance. There are no joints, which gives a huge advantage over other types of batteries. However, it is important to correctly calculate the capacity, otherwise the house will be hot or too cold.
- Panel.
Such radiators are best placed in large rooms. They quickly heat cold air and create an additional thermal curtain. They can be mounted both on the wall and on the floor.
- Convector.
Radiators are made as follows: at the bottom of the structure are steel pipes on which metal plates are mounted. The free space between these plates forms a stream of warm air. With such radiators in your home it will always be warm, but they cost a lot.
Now consider the material from which the radiators are made.
- Steel.
Based on statistical data, it can be said that steel radiators are most often installed in private homes. Such batteries have many advantages, including:
- low weight, and this affects the installation speed;
- minimum time is spent on heating and cooling;
- long term of operation;
- A wide range of selection of models;
But there are also disadvantages:
- subject to corrosion;
- the system must be cleaned regularly;
- Aluminum.
Recently, radiators began to be massively installed in private homes. And there is an explanation for that.
- Light weight;
- attractive appearance;
- You can adjust the temperature through the sections.
The disadvantages include:
- the ability to leak in the area of threaded connections;
- it is necessary to use a special liquid.
- Bimetal.
Something between steel and aluminum. Inside, the batteries are coated with iron, which positively affects the power characteristics. Most often they install pressure in apartment buildings with a high working capacity, which means that it does not belong in a private house.
Practice shows that aluminum sectional and steel panel radiator options are installed in private homes. Bimetal batteries can, of course, be installed, but it will be disadvantageous.
