Aluminum radiators.
Many reasons to prefer aluminium radiators to under-floor heating
In recent years there has been a widespread belief in huge savings in favour of under-floor heating. Nothing could be more inaccurate, and we'll prove it here in brief.
First, it is vital to clarify that the amount of heat necessary to heat a building depends exclusively on how it was built, or the thickness of the walls, the type of thermal insulation and the characteristics of the doors and windows.
This said, the most serious and precise technical analysis have assigned many advantages in favor of aluminum radiators: less maintenance cost, more adaptable, less energy waste. Just think of the fact that the under-floor system 'must' operate 24 hours on 24.
So? Why to use aluminum radiators?
10 useful responses for a choice
- Can be adapted in case of renovations
- Can be used in places where the insulation does not comply with standards
- Can be adapted according to the needs of individual rooms, or switched off in rooms if not used
- Can be integrated with home automation systems/domotics
- Elements such as parquet flooring, cavities and other construction materials can reduce the extent of heat diffusion
- Having the electrical systems, plumbing and other systems under the floor can create lot's of problems
- Average savings can be measured by comparing the two systems operating at full capacity (radiators 12 hours / day and floor system 24h/24)
- Can take advantage of the natural heat, internal and external
- The perfect solution for residential buildings
- The system heats up very quickly
