Skirting heating is divided into two groups: water and electric. The electric system consists of a radiator unit with mounted air heater. The heating element is placed in the lower tube, the wires are drawn through the upper tube. The power supply for the electric system is a conventional outlet. This type of warm skirting board is not recommended to be installed in wet rooms.
Water warm skirting boards consists of plastic tubes, a radiator block and a distribution collector. The box of the radiator unit is made of aluminum, the heat exchanger is made of copper pipes with aluminum or brass lamellas. The camshaft usually consists of steel tubes with a valve and air and liquid taps. By the way, now the metal doors are very popular, they are inexpensive.
The warm skirting board is installed around the perimeter of the room, the system works by means of air convection. Heat heats the walls, which later radiate heat into the atmosphere of the room. The design has a high coefficient of thermal conductivity and does not imply a strong heating of the coolant. The system is characterized by high safety, the temperature of the box does not exceed 400 ° C, which provides wall heating. Warm plinth is considered an effective addition to the main system of heating the room.
