Efficiency of Elpan/Wanpan Heating System in Comparison with Traditional Radiators

Efficiency of Elpan/Wanpan heating system in comparison with heat efficiency using traditional radiators is backed up by scientific tests. The thermal encirclement and heat distribution are main factors to define efficiency of any kind of heating system. Elpan/Wanpan heating panels are mounted around the perimeter of room. click to enlargeIt does not take much time to heat premises when heat is rising up (30%) and at the same time flows into the center of the room (70%). 

In short period of time, using Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system, the most even temperature (0.5 degree of C – red lines) between the floor level and bellow the ceiling is achieved and minimum heat convection as well as the minimum heat consumption takes place.

Traditional radiators are mounted on one or two walls and therefore, the highest air convection is registered in the room. Big difference (5-7 degrees of C – blue lines) of temperature between the floor level and bellow the ceiling leads to higher air convection as well as higher heat losses and lower heating efficiency.

Upper blu line – the temperature bellow the ceiling, using traditional radiators. Lower blu line – the temperature at the floor level, using traditional radiators. Upper red line – temperature bellow the ceiling, using Elpan/Wanpan heating system. Lower red line – the temperature at the floor level, using Elpan/Wanpan heating system.

Traditional radiators are mounted on one or two walls and therefore, the highest air convection is registered which leads to higher heat losses and lower heating efficiency. Efficiency of Elpan/Wanpan heating system in comparison with traditional radiators is clearly iliustrated by the difference of temperatures in between the floor level and bellow the ceiling.

Elpan/Wanpan Heating for Hospital, Clinic or Medical Center

If specific indoor requirements  such as even temperature, lowest level of dust and conditionaly humid air are preserved in a hospital (intense care area, emergency or surgery room, etc.), patients of the hospital or medical center are exposed to the most healthy and hygienic environment. Also, it is equally important for doctors, surgeons and other medical personel, who perform complicated and precise medical procedures, to work in highly comfortable thermal (even temperature, floor is not heated) and hygienic (level of dust, conditionaly humid air) conditions.

Elpan/Wanpan skirting board radiant heating system radiats heat directly into room and reacts to the change of temperature of 0.5 degree of C (people, sunshine, medical equipment, etc.) and momentarily turns off/on heating. The lowest heat convection is a result of thermal encirclement. It helps to keep the lowest level of dust in all areas of the clinic or hospital where Elpan/Wanpan heating systems are installed.

Medical facilities are filled with high quality and sensitive technology to monitor sensitive data and often – to keep patients alive. No additional heat at floor level (infloor heating), uniform temperature, fast reaction to the change of temperature and lowest level of dust in the room helps to run medical equipment smothly.

Exceptional conditions of highest level of comfort and hygiene are achieved, when Elpan/Wanpan baseboard radiant heating system is used in hospital, clinic or other medical facilitiy.

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.
