The principle of the functioning of the radiator and the requirements for the screen (lattice)

How does a standard heating radiator work?

When heated, the battery transfers heat to the room in two ways: using heated air flows. this is called the process of the Convention, as well as through direct thermal radiation in the infrared range.

These two ways of transmission of thermal energy can vary in priority and efficiency, depending on the ratio of the temperature of the coolant and the room in the room, on the design of a particular battery and from external factors. the presence of interference, etc.P.

installation, lattice, heating, batteries

For example, cast.iron batteries in not very strong cold heat the room for the most part with the help of the Convention. But with the output of the heating system to maximum, when the coolant heats up to 70 degrees or more, then heat goes to the room mainly due to infrared radiation.

Modern aluminum radiators work on the same principle, but they have the property of more flexibly adapt to the influence of external factors. For example, if heat enters the room with difficulty (this can happen if the batteries are closed with dense curtains), then heat flows in the battery move closer to the external front planes of the sections. In this case, the radiator goes to work in heat.radiant mode.

In any case, in order for the radiator to work as effective as possible, it is necessary to ensure both heat transfer capabilities. For example, on converter radiators, it is necessary to install gratings. not having the upper horizontal panel. This is necessary for free circulation of heated air.

You can never block the paths for convection air flows

If the screen is installed, then one should be selected that will provide free circulation of heated air flows and the passage of direct infrared radiation. Such conditions can only be fulfilled in the case. If there are sufficiently large holes on the front panel of the screen (at least 50% of the total area) and free space above the radiator. for convection flows.

In addition, there are other conditions that should be fulfilled to achieve the most effective heat transfer.

Combination of physics and design

So that the selected grille or screen does not interfere with the radiator to function correctly, you need to provide a couple of points.

The material of the external cladding should have good thermal conductivity so that infrared radiations do not remain in a closed space, but are effectively transferred to the room.

The inside of the lattice or screen should be painted in dark color. This provides good heat absorption and its further transmission. The outer side can have any shade, the one that is better to decorate the interior-this does not affect the effectiveness of heating, but the inside is recommended to cover with dark brown or black paint.

On the wall behind the radiator, it is advisable to arrange a heat.cutting screen from a foil heat insulator

Sometimes, before installing the radiator, foam is fixed on the wall, also having a reflecting layer, and only after that is the battery mount. This option will help maintain heat and save considerable funds for energy consumption.

Effectively working lattice

In order not to be mistaken when choosing or when making a lattice or screen, you need to take into account some points.

  • A very unsuccessful screen version is a continuous panel, which has very small holes from above and below or throughout the surface.

They will not be able to provide the necessary circulation of heated air masses, even if the inner surface of the grate is covered with black paint. In this case, you will have to spend a large amount of fuel for heating rooms, which means that large costs will follow.

  • Another, already more acceptable, but still not very effective bars. it is a wide frame made of wood, which covers the battery around and has a grill of slats located far from each other on the front side.

This option gives good heat transfer only on one side. direct infrared radiation, but does not create a thermal curtain and does not block the flow of cold air coming from the window.

In design terms, such a model looks good, as the tree is suitable for any interior. In addition, the upper part of the frame can be adapted for arranging indoor plants. However, given the insufficient circulation of warm air. this is not the best grate option.

  • The best version of the screen in all respects will be the grate. which will simultaneously direct warm air up, thereby blocking the path of cold flows from the window, which means. There should be either holes on top of the grate or directed cracks.

In addition, a design will be very successful in which an aerodynamic visor is provided. It is especially convenient if the radiator is hidden under the window. Made from a narrow strip of metal or even dense cardboard, it is not so on the heated air on top of the radiator, it will redirect it towards the room.

Brief instruction for independent installation

Having decided on the choice of the right option, it is possible to start working on installation. Such activities are quite implemented independently, without involving a specialist.

The main thing is to arm yourself with the required materials and tools:

  • self.tapping screws,
  • plywood,
  • A rail made of wood,
  • hammer,
  • screwdriver,
  • nails,
  • furniture stapler,
  • lattice (rail),
  • glue,
  • Note-Nozhovka.

The initial stage is characterized by the measurement of the parameters of the heating device. width, height, etc.D. The allowances (several centimeters) are added to the obtained values). Then the gap between the wall structure and the grate is measured onto the heating radiator, where the distance is also left for normal circulation of air flows.

Next, the frame is performed using racks. Using self.tapping screws, it is installed in the wall surface. Perhaps the created design will perform a little, which is not critical. the frame will be a continuation of the windowsill.

The formed design is then covered with a prepared plywood or with wood-bearing plates replaced by it.

Thin rails are used to make a lattice; instead of them, fabric tapes can be used. If it is necessary to create a decorative pattern, on top of them you can fill the remaining rails, for example, performing the shape of a square.

An independent screen on the battery will become a unique element of the interior, because its formation has a personal design contribution and labor.

The process of coating formation for the radiator is not as labor, however requires attentiveness, accuracy and pre.thought.out stages of technology. Of course, it is worth taking care of the presence of proper air circulation in order to avoid the appearance of problems with heat transfer.

Advantages of screens for heating radiators

Before proceeding with the manufacture of the screen for the radiator, we consider the main advantages of this design.

  • Using screens for heating radiators, the advantages of which will be discussed later, you will have the opportunity to effectively mask the batteries by creating a holistic interior concept and transforming your home;
  • Prevent radiator pollution, which will facilitate their operation and maintenance;
  • Properly designed radiators will provide uniform distribution of air masses throughout the room;
  • Having covered the radiators with a decorative screen, you will protect the households from burns and bruises with an inaccurate collision with heating appliances and, thereby, ensure their safety;
  • A variety of materials, textures, shapes and colors allows you to choose the right decorative solution, which will be the perfect addition to the main interior concept.

Advantages of protective screens for heating radiators

Decorative and protective products for heating batteries have many advantages, among which the following most important ones can be noted:

  • perform a protective function, that is, prevent the likelihood of obtaining burns in contact with hot battery, and also reduce the risk of injury when hitting a radiator, which is especially important if there are young children in the family;
  • Screens for radiators improve the spread of heat in the room, that is, increase convection, creating a natural obstacle to air thresholds, as a result of such a barrier, warm air evenly enters the space and the room is completely heated;
  • Close unsightly old batteries, the replacement of which is impossible to carry out, for example, in the absence of funds, or when the repair is not planned in the near future, the screens are an order of magnitude less, which means that they are a more affordable option;
  • Screens prevent dust from entering the heating battery, due to the special design of the screens of. In the absence of this product, small organic and inorganic particles penetrate the rear wall of the radiator and remain on the ribs, it is completely impossible to clean the batteries, and when the device is heated, the dust rises up and the residents have to breathe dirty air. The screens create an excellent barrier for dust and, in addition, they can be freely cleaned;
  • There is a wide selection of design solutions, the screens are easy to choose for absolutely any interior and harmoniously fit them into the overall style, due to the wide variety of colors, shapes and material of manufacture, this part not only performs the function of protection, but also is a decorative element;
  • Universality of use, the product can be installed in premises for various purposes. in private houses, apartments, in offices, at industrial facilities and other residential and public premises.

Screens for radiators perfectly hide all the defects of the heating batteries, they are easy to mount and just look after them. If you cannot find the perfect solution among finished products, then you can order an individual design. The cost, of course, will be a higher, but the room where the installation of products is planned will sparkle with new colors.

  • Flat, designed for installation in niches.
  • Hinged without a lid hide batteries that do not protrude beyond the edge of the windowsill.
  • Hinged, having a removable cover on top, are used for radiators protruding outside the window sill.

Frame, which are a box that completely hides the placement of the radiator.

How to close batteries correctly. technical rules and tips.

Before closing the heating battery, it is necessary to take into account several technical nuances:

  • Keep in mind that the transfer of the heat of the closed radiator is reduced in any case, no matter what method of disguise you choose. The main thing is that the change is not significant. Ideally, a decrease in air temperature in the room should be about 1-1.5 degrees.
  • Before closing the battery, put it in order: blow it, wash (this is done at the end of the heating season) and paint.
  • Keep in mind that the denser the weaving of the lattice, the better it masks the radiator, but the worse it conducts heat. Therefore, when choosing a screen for the battery, try to look for a middle ground or bet on heat saving.
  • So that heat losses are minimal, the screen can be put on the legs, and in the center cut the groove.
  • Closing the battery, it is very important not to block convective air flows, otherwise it will blow in the room, and the windows will begin to fog, which will ultimately lead to the appearance of mold on the walls. Ideally, the visor visor should protrude over the batteries by no more than 30 mm, the top and bottom of the battery should be open as possible.
  • There should be a distance of at least 35-50 mm between the battery and the screen. From the radiator to the floor to the windowsill should remain a gap of about 60-70 mm.
  • To solve emergency situations, it is necessary to provide free access to the radiator. For example, the grate of the box can be removable, folding (see. Photo) opening on loops or extending on profiles.

At least for trouble.free maintenance in good availability, there should remain: connecting units to pipes, valves, thermal head and threaded joints.

You can increase heat transfer by 20-25% by placing a heat-refracting screen on the wall behind the radiator, for example, fumisol. Often this is enough to completely compensate for the heat loss of a closed battery.

Features of the use of screens

Any metal screen needs minimal care, since it is painted with powder paint, which does not break off over time.

  • The metal screen for the cast.iron heating battery is easy to perform and install, so it is not difficult to mount gratings for heating radiators with your own hands.
  • The standard screen is made of steel, which is complemented by a metal grill.
  • The lattice passes heat through its holes, simultaneously blocking excess infrared radiation.
  • It is not difficult to choose the grill for yourself, since there are a lot of weaving options. In addition, you can order a screen that will fully comply with the proposed project by color and shape.

Many designers actively return cast.iron batteries to fashion, so you can choose a screen that will not hide it from the eye. On the contrary, the openwork mesh will clearly indicate the presence of this radiator in the apartment. This is a very popular solution for fans of retro style. If you want a very modern design, then such options will be easily found.

The arrival of new technologies brings not only something new, but also returns to life the old. Cast iron batteries are no exception: a correctly thought out design will allow you to breathe into an obsolete energy design, so you should not get rid of it. On the contrary, the correctly selected screen on the cast.iron heating battery will add only new colors to the interior, retaining all the advantages of the old system!
