How it works

Your radiator has two sides and because of its proximity to the wall, a large part of the heat is wasted heating up the wall of your house.

The Ecologic Radiator Panel is a simple fix to this problem, it is designed to reflect the heat back into your home. It also has some extra bonuses and improves the efficiency of your heating system in 3 ways:

• The reflective finish reflects radiant heat away from the wall back into the room and radiator.
• The Saw-Tooth Profle of the panel, redisrects convective airflow into the room improving the heat flow in your home and removing cold spots.
• The panel also traps still air between the panel and the wall.

Heat is beter distributed around the room

This results in a much more uniform heat level in the room and very little wasted heat into the wall. The graduated colours of the left hand picture show how heat normally rises up the wall, leaving the room cool at ankle level. In the picture on the right, the arrows show the flow of heat moving out into the room, making for a much warmer room.

Thermal image of radiator heat being lost through the wall

You can see clearly on this image where the radiator is directly heating the outside wall Just below the left upstairs window. The wall is bright yellow / red, showing a large amount of heat is being lost (thanks to www.epogee.co.uk for providing us with the thermal images):
