Radiant Heat and Thermal Comfort with Elpan/Wanpan Heating

Behind the design of every new house there is a desire to minimize living expenses and have a comfortable, healthy indoor environment. In planning the requirements of a heating system a good basic

assumption is that the person for whom the system must assure thermal comfort is sitting still while wearing light indoor clothing.

Experiments have shown that if a uniform temperature can be achieved at every point in the room, at both head and foot level, 21 degree of C is ideal.

Energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan skirting board radiant heating system provides comfortable radiant heat and the most possible uniform temperature in the room – only 0.5C difference between the floor and the ceiling (scientifically proved).

Having the uniform temperature in the room is the main important factor which leads to Thermal Encirclement, highest energy savings and the most comfortable and healthy indoor environment to be enjoyed.

Thermal Comfort Conditions Achieved when Using Elpan/Wanpan Heating

While seeking to achieve the highest level of thermal comfort in the living area it is essential that everyone responsible for designing the home of the future and their indoor climate is aware of the variables affecting thermal comfort and sound heating economy.

The six most important conditions are:

activity level (heat production in the body)

–  thermal resistance of clothing (clo-value)

air temperature

mean radiant temperature

relative air velocity/absolute

relative air humidity/absolute.

All of these thermal comfort conditions become easy to be achieved when using energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan skirting board radiant heating system.

Elpan/Wanpan Baseboard Heating System for Private Homes and Cottages

One of the most common applications for Elpan/Wanpan baseboard heating system is to be installed in private homes and cottages. Regular or programmable thermostats help to adjust indoor temperatures according to family schedule. Bedrooms are usually kept at lower temperature during the day and, in most times, during the night. Temperature in kids’ rooms may easily be adjusted to the schedule of the school, kindergarden or other type of their activities.

In addition, residents of the house and indoor pets are not additinally affected by heated floor surface and feel more comfortable as well as stay healthier.

When family is ready to go on a weekend trip or vacation, much lower temperatures may be kept in whole residence and signifficant savings of heating energy will help to maintain lower budget.

Comparing with other heating systems (infloor heating or underfloor heating) Elpan/Wanpan radiant baseboard heating systems has much lower inertia. Straight from the heating panels heat is radiating into the room directly. With Elpan panels company supply a new control system, which allows to switch on the heating just by sending an SMS. The message could be sent 1-2 hours before arrival and residents will walk into a lovely warm house.

For more than 40 years Elpan/Wanpan heating system is proven to be one of the highest quality and most desirable baseboard heating systems for private homes and cottages.

Skirting Board Heating Helps to Avoid Mould Formation

Along with the struggling economy and rising prices of heating energy, consumers are experiencing some challenges: how to keep their homes efficiently heated and, at the same timClick to enlargee, how to avoid mould formation on the walls.

Mould formation on the walls may easily show up at some corners of the room or behind big pieces of furniture. We see it happening very often, when residents are trying to save heating energy by keeping lower indoor temperature and outside air conditions are rather more humid than freezing.

Slim Elpan/Wanpan heating panels are mounted behind the furniture and all around the coners of the room. All  walls are surrounded with heated air and even temperature. At this point, there are no supportive environmental conditions for mould formation to appear at the corners of the room.

Most likely, residents, who live near by water fields or on the coast, are looking for some solutions concerning mould formation on the walls. In some countries the begining of heating season depends on higher authorities of the city/town, so heating energy consumers can not turn on heat earlier, because their house is connected to the centralized heating system of the bigger area. In this case, to have just few Elpan heating panels, installed in the most sensitive areas, is a thoughtful decission.

Heating energy consumers, who have Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system installed, are using heating energy most efficiently. Skirting board heating helps to avoid mould formation on the walls as well as to have healthier indoor environment.
