There are many options for home heating. Below you can see the operating principles and main advantages of some heating methods
|
|
Ceiling Heating
|
|
-
|
Heaters: alson heating foils or ceiling panels
|
 |
|
-
|
Most of the energy is transferred to the room as heat radiation, which turns into heat when absorbed by room surfaces
|
|
-
|
The warm surfaces warm up the air
|
|
-
|
Very slight air circulation
|
|
-
|
Air temperature almost same in all parts of the room
|
|
-
|
Air temperature almost same in all parts of the room
|
|
-
|
Continuous heating
|
|
|
|
Floor Heating
|
|
-
|
Heaters: heating cable, heating mats or Alson heating foils
|
 |
|
-
|
A half of the energy is transferred into the room as radiation, the rest directly into the room air
|
|
-
|
Very slight air circulation
|
|
-
|
Air temperature almost same in all parts of the room
|
|
-
|
Heaters hidden in floor structures
|
|
-
|
Continuous or charging heating
|
|
|
|
Radiator Heating
|
|
-
|
Heaters: radiators
|
 |
|
-
|
Most of the energy is transferred directly to the air (convection)
|
|
-
|
Warm air rises towards the ceiling
|
|
-
|
Warm air heats the surfaces in the room
|
|
-
|
Air circulates constantly
|
|
-
|
Temperature is higher close to the ceiling
|
|
-
|
Continuous heating
