Heating with radiators - a modern alternative to
heat source
If someone wanted to briefly describe radiant heating, they would have to give an example
sun. The only difference is that in the latter case you are dealing with one
of the stars of the solar system. Here are the most interesting information that relates to
infrared heating.
Radiation - a well-known physical phenomenon
The panels, which operate on infrared, ensure an even distribution of temperature in the room
room. Sometimes they are compared to old tiled stoves, which were also in
able to provide this temperature. Surprisingly, other traditional heating methods (eg.
radiators) are not able to provide such a phenomenon. Infrared heaters resist
based on a well-known physical phenomenon that is able to ensure an optimal climate in
all rooms.
The difference between convector and infrared heating is what it is
it is really heated first. The first heats the air, and only then
then objects and people. Infrared waves work on the opposite principle, thanks
which creates a much better atmosphere in the room.
Types of infrared radiation.
However, one must not forget that in the scientific world one is really dealing with
several types of infrared radiation. This is important because some waves
infrared can be harmful to humans:
● short-wave radiation - they are marked with 700 and 1500 nm, they are
clearly visible and with prolonged use may become harmful to the eyes;
● short-wave infrared lamp radiation - the difference is that in their
special attenuation filters are used;
● medium-wave radiation - from 1500 to 4000 nm, they are not visible or there are few
visible, they are safe to use, they are used to heat designated areas
seats;
● long-wave radiation - from 4,000 to 15,000 nm, they do not emit light at all, so
those that can be found in saunas, at home and in the office.
So it is already known that heating with radiators is a long wave, the temperature of which
can be 100 degrees, and the power density is 3kW.
Electric infrared heating.
Infrared electric heating is a great alternative to such heat sources
such as: powered by a gas stove, eco-pea coal, pellets, etc. Contrary to appearances, modern
radiators are not that expensive at all. Even when you consider the costs
investment, operation and service, you may be quite surprised at how it will be
with the return on investment. Anyway, just look at the statistics, which is clear
they say that infrared heating is second only to pumps
warm. At the same time, as long as heat pumps based on solar panels are taken into account. NO
You can also ignore the fact that radiant heating is very easy to install and
it also does not require complicated renovation works.
Which infrared heating to choose?
Infrared panels are the most commonly used. These are long-wave heat radiators.
They work great not only in single-family homes. You can successfully
can also be used in apartments. Why are they so popular? Because
just hang them on the wall by plugging them into an electrical outlet. You can
they can also be mounted on the ceiling, between the coffers, where they perfectly “blend into the background”.
Infrared heating foils and mats may not be that popular, but they do a great job
itself as underfloor heating. Although, if someone wants it, they can eat it
mounted on the walls, where they will take care of the even distribution of heat. Often
you can meet with mats and foils in the case of motorhomes, where they are integrated into
the wall.
A real curiosity is that not only people can benefit from this type of heating.
Often, such a source of heat is also based on animal husbandry and farming
plants.
