Elpan/Wanpan Heating System Versus Infloor Heating

Elpan/Wanpan heating system has quite few more advantages comparing with infloor or underfloor heating. One of them – low inertia. When using Elpan/Wanpan heating systems reaction time to the change of indoor temperature is vClick enlargeery fast

Significant energy savings are achieved because of sunlight/sun heat coming through windows. Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system stops heating immediately, while infloor heating system just caries on giving off heat.

The Thermal Encirclement principle also offers heating cost savings when compare to infloor heating, as it is virtually impossible to use night and day heat reduction, because the reaction time for reducing floor heating is signifficantlly longer, tipicaly 5-7 hours, and so reducing the heat does not pay off.

Residents are experiencing healthier indoor environment, because there is no additional dust rising from the lowest level of the room and affecting those with asthma or other respitorial problems. Immune system of kids and adults living in the house with Elpan/Wanpan heating system is not influenced negatively by walking on heated surface of the floor. Also, it is noticed, that bigger indoor kept dogs feel more comfortable while siting or laying on the floor which is not heated.

When Elpan electric or Wanpan hydronic/water based heating system is installed, flooring materials do not affect heating efficiency as well as carpeting or furnishing.  Heating energy flows directlly into the room. Created Thermal Encirclement gives a feeling of highest level of comfort.

Neat heating panels are mounted instead regular baseboards, which eliminates additional expenses related to regular wood or polyester basebord cost and installation.

Energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system provides highest level of comfort and healthy environment as well as sophisticated indoor design.

Skirting Board Heating Versus Traditional Radiators

Heating panels of Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system are fitted around the room, at the base of the wall, instead of regular baseboards and warms a house or a flat in a different way, comClick to enlargeparing to traditional radiators.

Thermal Encirclement is created as well as constant temperature throughout the room. It helps to avoid the air circulation caused by traditional radiators. The air in the room does not move arround, while the traditional radiators create a circulation of air, which starts by moving up to the ceiling and the crosswise.

It allows to reduce heating energy consumption by 20%, when installing Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system and creating Thermal Encirclement effect. Additional up to 15% of energy savings are achieved when programmable thermostats are used. Thermal Encirclement eliminates a possibility of any cold or damp walls or corners.

There are no radiators on the walls, what gives more flexibility to furnish the room as desired. Eliminating one or two radiators in the room indoor design becomes modern and appealing.

Residents of the house are living in more comfortable and healthier environment. Elpan/Wanpan skirting heating system versus traditional radiators by creating The Thermal Encirclement and making indoor living more pleasant and healthy.

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.

Installing Elpan Skirting Board Radiant Heating System in Huge Space


Installing Elpan skirting board radiant heating system in church, which is huge space not only by big square footage, but also – by having very high ceilings – is the best way to save heating energy.

There is not a purpose such as –  to heat all church from floor to ceiling, but it is a desirable goal to keep people warm during activity hours. Heating systems which have high inertia (infloor heating) or low efficiency (traditional radiators or baseboard heaters) are to costly to be operated in these kind of buildings.

When Elpan electric modular heating panels are mounted under each seat, from both sides of the bench,  radiant heat is used right there, where it is needed the most. In addition to that,  Elpan radiant heating system could be installed on surrounding walls around the perimeter of the church.

It is necessary to install the ultimate heating system to keep all members of congregation feeling comfortable  when they are participating in church events. At this point – installing Elpan skirting board radiant heating system in church –  is one of the best ways to heat huge space and save heating energy.

Energy Consumption and Wood Flooring

A signifficant amount of heating energy could be lost when transfering heat through other objects and especially – wood. The thermal conductivity of wood is very low, compearing with metals. Wood -based materials as loose fill, flexible batts or rigid panels are used for Thermal or Sound Insulation.

Because of these scientific facts, it is not a very good idea to install wood floor and infloor/underfloor heating system while seeking to have energy efficient heating. Energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan skirting board radiant heating system has no limitations at this point and any type of flooring works perfectly fine.

The thermal conductivity of structural softwood lumber at 12% moisture is about 1500 times lower than thermal conductivity of aluminum.

Front plates of Wanpan modular heating panels are made of aluminum. The structure of hydronic Wanpan skirting board heating system allows radiant heat to flow through aluminum plates into the room without the additional energy consumption, which would be needed to transfer heat through the wood floor. Copper pipes mounted behind the aluminum front plates of Wanpan baseboard modular panels complete the concept of this ultimate heating system.
