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.

Heating Energy Savings with Elpan/Wanpan Ultimate Heating System

Several tests over the years have shown that the thermal encirclement principle results in big savings of 25% on heating cost every year, when using Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system. This is bClick to enlargeecause all room is heated evenly, instead of having one radiator, which pumps air around the room, including over to the corners which are far away from the heating source. The thermal encirclement principle saves the energy required for this transmission.

Wanpan hydronic heating system in average cost around $13.00- $16.00 per linear foot or $5.00-$8.00 – per square foot. The final price depends on which components of the heating system and how many of them are mounted in the specific room. The exact price for the project is estimated after the calculation of heating system installation is completed. It needs to be addmited, that not all areas of the house are required heating panels to be mounted and every project may have some exceptions and adjustments.

Elpan electrical heating system is about 10% more expensive to purchase, but at the same time is about 10% more torrid, than Wanpan hydronic heating system.

An example: If  normally $ 6,000.00 per year is spend on heating a residence, the savings with Elpan/Wanpan system would be $1,500.00 per year, in other words $ 15,000.00 over ten years.

So, even if Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system cost a little more to buy, it quickly pays returns on the investment. The ultimate heating system provides with energy savings as well as other beneficial qualities, including highest level of comfort, healthy environment and low inertia.

Elpan/Wanpan Heating System in Historical Buildings and Old Architectural Constructions

Elpan/Wanpan heating system has a huge advantage comparing to other heating systems, when it comes to a restoration of historical buildings and old architectural constructions.  Click to enlarge

Architects, who are focusing on restoration and design, are working on remodeling old buildings with a purpose to create affordable housing or restore functional commercial spaces. At the same time, their purpose is to blend older construction details with up to date equipment and technology.

The requirements involve drawing remodeling plans for older or historical properties that reduce home’s energy cost through the use of eco-friendly insulation, energy efficient heating systems and other green products. More likely, original floor, walls and other architectural parts inside of the building have to be preserved and can not be taken apart, altered or damaged.

Neat and slim Elpan electric heating system blends into design details and becomes almost invisible. When installing energy efficient Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system in historical buildings or old architectural constructions, there is the least possible impact concerning structural changes and interior design.

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.

Elpan/Wanpan Baseboard Heating System Installation Exceptions

There are many times, when we come accross the situation where some baseboard heating system installation exceptions may apply. To follow the thermal encirclement principle, skirting boarClick to enlarged heating system needs to be installed on all 4 walls, around the perimeter of room. In addition, for the purpose to cover very high heat loses, heating panels may be installed in two rows – one above each other, in a distance of choise. One wall with windows or even two outside walls, where the highest heat losses are more likely to appear, are chosen.

In rare cases, when there is no need to install Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating on 4 walls, baseboard heating panels could be mounted on 3 walls only. It is an extraordinary exception and it applies exclusively for premises with extremly good insullation and low heating losses. Corridors or small opened areas, located inside of the house and surrounded by other well heated areas, may not need a heating system to be entirelly installed there.

Being aware of these Elpan/Wanpan baseboard heating system installation exceptions, everybody has to consult with heating proffesional and in no case make their own decissions of where the heating panels do not have to be installed or which areas could be left without the heating.

How to Keep the Same Indoor Temperature in the House

How to keep the same indoor temperature in the house? This is a common question comming from heating systems’ consumers. Obviously, creating the environment, where the same temperature is achieved in all living areas of the house, sometimes might be a little challenging.Click to enlarge

Each area of the house is exposed to different conditions concerning heating losses, because of its different location in the house – windows facing different direction (north/east/west/south), rooms are located at the ground floor or second floor, 1, 2 or 3 outside walls, etc.. These factors lead to different heating energy consumption. Installing only one thermostat at lower lewel of the house – definitely will not provide with the conditions where the same temperature will be achieved in each area of the house.

The main requirement for achieving the same indoor temperature in the house – having thermostats to be installed in every room and each living area, which needs a heating system. If the thermostats appear to be programmable – the same temperature should be set up in each room at the same period of time.

If there is a goal to achieve the same thermal conditions in every room of the house, it is very important, that thermostats are not affected by such additional heat sources as direct sunlight, fireplace or appliances, which radiate signifficant amount of heat, etc..

Programmable thermostats or regular thermostats for Elpan/Wanpan skirting board heating system could be purchased localy – for the purpose to lower the price of the heating system. Programmable or regular thermostats installed in every room help to keep the same indoor temperature in each room and create the most comfortable indoor environment in the house.
