Summary
Radiators trap still air and insulate between walls and radiators, preventing up to 70% heat loss. They redistribute heat back into the room, enhancing comfort and reducing cold spots.
Their saw-tooth design helps circulate warm air at lower levels, improving warmth without significant temperature drop. Using radiator panels can raise central heating water temperature, leading to anticipated fuel savings of 10-12% by:
- Reducing boiler operation frequency and duration.
- Decreasing warming times by up to one-third.
- Allowing for lower radiator/boiler settings.
