Technical Specifications and Types of Electric Radiators and Heaters

Electric radiators are devices that generate heat using electric elements and transfer it to the environment. These devices are usually made of metal alloys such as aluminum or steel, which, due to their physical and thermal properties, conduct heat optimally. Electric radiators are divided into various types, each with specific features:
Fan Radiators: Equipped with an internal fan that distributes heat faster and more evenly in the environment.
Oil-Filled Radiators: Operate by using oil as a thermal fluid. Heat is transferred to the oil first, and then released to the surroundings.
Digital Heaters: Equipped with digital thermostats allowing precise temperature adjustment and energy optimization.
Electric heaters are also recognized as efficient heating systems that produce and distribute heat using electricity. They usually come with adjustable thermostats, enabling precise temperature control, making them suitable for homes, offices, and commercial spaces.

Specialized Applications of Electric Radiators and Heaters

  • Specialized applications of electric radiators and heaters in various sectors include:
    Residential Heating: Used in homes to heat living rooms, bedrooms, and other indoor spaces. Due to temperature control and high safety, they are the first choice of many families.

    Office and Commercial Use: Due to adjustable temperature and high efficiency, they are suitable for heating offices and commercial environments, ensuring comfort and productivity.

    Industrial and Semi-Industrial Applications: In workshops and small industrial areas, electric radiators serve as reliable heating sources, thanks to their durable design and fast heating capacity.
