Energy Efficient Elpan/Wanpan Heating System Reacts to Additional Heat Source

Energy efficient Elpan and Wanpan skirting board radiant heating systems are even more economical for heating homes or holiday cottages using new precise control thermostats.

Elpan/Wanpan ultimate skirting board radiant heating system is sensitive to additional heat source, which appears in heated area (fire place, people, sun heat, etc.)

Programable thermostat reacts to the change of 0.9 F° (0.5 C°)  temperature in the room momentarily, and shuts down the system for as long as the certain temperature remains. A significant amount of energy can be saved as well as consumer expenses reduced.

In North facing rooms a fireplace would work for the same purpose effectively and affect energy savings. In South fasing rooms it is very important to use the sun’s heat during the heating season.

Programmable Thermostats – Additional Energy Savings

Additional energy savings of 10-15% are achieved when programmable thermostats are installed in every each room of the house.The energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan ultimate skirting board radiant heating system can also be set to accommodate numerous temperature changes throughout the week, such as between night and day or times when you are asleep or at work.

There is a new control system provided with energy efficient electric Elpan radiant heating system for holiday homes. It allows you to switch on the heating just by sending an SMS. You can send a message a couple of hours before you arrive so you could walk into a lovely warm house.

Energy Savings with Elpan/Wanpan

 The example below indicates a direct comparison of energy consumption between a local heat source ap­pliance (radiator) and energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan radiant baseboard heating system when used to provide the total Heat Enclosure.

COMPARISON OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION – LOCAL HEAT SOURCE AND HEAT ENCLOSURE

 From laboratory and practical test experience, if either the Elpan (electric) or Wanpan (hydronic) skirting board radiant heating systems are installed in the way indicated above required energy consumption may be reduced by a factor of 0.8 against that considered necessary for local heat appliances (radiators etc).

Local heat source rated at 6kW (effect: poor, uneven heat distribution)

Heat Enclosure rated at 4.8kW (effect: uniform heat distribution)

Energy saving with Heat Enclosure 1.2 kW = 20% (0.8 factor)

Thermal Encirclement

Energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan ultimate skirting board radiant heating system provides radiant heat emission balanced with the lightest of convection currents. The heat permeates across the floor, away from the walls, and upward – to create a desired even temperature condition throughout the room. Heat is distributed evenly from floor to ceiling and corner to corner eliminating over-heated areas and cold spots. Heat convection is minimized as well as heat consumption. Click on the picture below to enlarge.

Several tests have proved that the thermal encirclement system offers savings of 20-25%.The tests were conducted by measuring the energy used in a conventionally heated house and then later replacing the system with energy saving Elpan/Wanpan ultimate radiant baseboard heating system. The energy consumption was reduced by 20-25%. Besides, it was a noticeable improvement in comfort. This is the best possible documentation of the outstanding properties of thermal encirclement.

Radiant Heat Distribution Describes Efficiency of Heating System

Distribution of Heat – is the main factor which describes the efficiency of any heating system. This is well known fact by scientists, engineers and other professionals.   

  Any type of local heat source, e.g. radiator or fan-assisted baseboard heater has to produce a large volume of surplus heat by convection or forced air to reach all areas and corners of the room.

This results in uneven temperature extremes and excessive heat closer to the heat source and at “high-out-of-reach” levels close to the ceiling, but with “cold spots” in the corners and at the floor level.

The skirting board heating modules of energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan ultimate skirting board radiant heating systems allow radiant heat to be released in a uniform and controlled manner around the perimeter of the room, literally “stretching” the available energy-heat to provide maximum operational efficiency and an even temperature conditions.

Greater Indoor Comfort

Elpan –  Electric skirting board radiant heating system.  Heat source – electricity.

Wanpan – Hydronic (hot water) sirting board radiant heating system.  Heat source gas, oil,  electricity, solar energy, wind energy, etc.

In the past building construction has been carried out with materials designed from the point of view of technological preconditions. Energy efficient Elpan /Wanpan ultimate baseboard radiant heating system is designed from the standpoint of human thermal requirements. This means that using them provides greater indoor comfort and better thermal welfare in buildings, as a result of the following:

No dump walls and fewer house mites or mildew // Elimination of draughts and floor air currents // Comfortable thermal encirclement  // Relatively lower air flow // Relatively higher oxygen level

Elpan/Wanpan Ultimate Radiant Heating Systems

Elpan/Wanpan –  energy saving skirting board radiant heating system has been developed in parallel with laboratory test results and practical application in the use of Heat Enclosure.

Elpan/Wanpan are the energy efficient baseboard radiant heating systems which offers greatest comfort by literally wrapping a room with warmth. Because there are no fans, the system is quiet and draft free.

The choice of design and colors is an important part of creating comfortable surroundings for people to live in, which has an even greater importance for well-being and everyday inspiration.

The unique modular capacity, elegant styling and compact size make Elpan (electric) and Wanpan (hydronic- hot water) baseboard radiant heating systems to be perfect for new construction or remodeling.
