Squeeze out the maximum
Here are some simple tips for a warm room:
1) Install temperature controllers on the batteries, with the help of which comfortable conditions will be maintained in the room
Please note that without a thermostat, the radiator will heat up to the level of the coolant, which will lead to the burning of oxygen and, as a result, stuffiness in the room and headaches. In a stuffy room, you have to open windows, which means losing precious heat, for which you pay out of your own pocket.
Installing a thermostat will help you save money - you will pay exactly for the amount of heat that you use.
2) Do not cover the batteries with thick curtains. They limit the flow of heat into the room.
3) Preventing the leakage of heat, do not keep the window open all the time, it is better to arrange cross-ventilation for a while. Thus, you will fill the room with fresh air, but a sharp drop in temperature will not occur.
Detailed product description Radiator Equation 500/100, 6 sections bimetal Equation is a bimetallic water heating radiator designed for heating residential premises. The radiator includes 6 sections. The bimetallic radiator is a structure made of steel pipes, filled under high pressure with high-quality aluminum alloy. Thanks to this design, these radiators successfully combine strength characteristics and a high nominal heat flux. Bimetal heating radiators have increased strength and are able to withstand large pressure drops. The reliability and efficiency of bimetallic heating radiators ensure safety and long service life. Recommended for installation in an apartment. Equation radiators are a modern solution for creating a comfortable microclimate in your home.
Size matters
Deciding on the material of the radiator is only half the battle. An important role in this matter is played by thermal power, which depends on the number of sections. If the room is small, it is impractical and expensive to purchase a large radiator. 1 section of the device is designed to heat approximately 2 square meters, which means that 5 sections are perfect for a 10-meter room. But here it is worth considering that each radiator has its own heat transfer indicators, for example, one section of a cast-iron battery produces from 80 to 150 W, and a bimetallic one - 200 W. Leroy Merlin specialists will help you make the right choice and offer the most affordable heating options.
Housing problem
Cast iron batteries have been heating our homes for over 100 years. The so-called "accordion" was installed in the houses of the old fund, and you can buy it for heating an apartment only to replace a worn one. The only thing these devices are not afraid of is corrosion. Cast iron radiators do not withstand high pressure and are very afraid of water hammer. In addition, cast iron radiators cannot be installed in a new apartment, only in a new house. And yes, the look leaves a lot to be desired.
What suits the inhabitants of modern apartments? Leroy Merlin specialists suggest paying attention to bimetal devices

This type of radiator is made of steel with aluminum, which has high thermal conductivity and perfectly warms up the room. Moreover, the distribution of air masses occurs convectively. The radiator looks modern and concise, it will neatly fit into the interior of any room. In addition, it will last at least 20 years. The steel manifold prevents corrosion, is resistant to pressure drops, prevents aluminum from contacting the coolant, protecting the material from destruction.
The cost of such a battery is higher than cast iron.However, the purchase will not harm the wallet - in Leroy Merlin hypermarkets you can save money and purchase the option that suits you. For example, bimetal radiators of Equation's own brand meet the requirements of world standards and will appeal to even the most selective customers. The line is represented by radiators with 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 sections.
