The shape
Nowadays there are all types of radiators. The shape is chosen according to the available space and also the desired design. If horizontal models are traditionally installed in bedrooms and living rooms, a beautiful tall radiator can also have the most beautiful effect. In the kitchen, where space is usually limited, it is advisable to give preference to compact and vertical models. In the bathroom, the electric towel rail remains the ideal solution. For attics or under a low window, there are “plinth” models, all long and low in height.
The technology
There are now connected or “smart” radiators, which can be controlled remotely from a smartphone or tablet. Thanks to this very fine temperature control and real-time monitoring of electricity consumption, bills are even lower. Some models can memorize the rhythm of life of the users, therefore, be programmed according to situations and even unforeseen events. Intelligently controlled radiators can save up to 45% energy. A smart thermostat can be installed on a non-connected radiator, equipped with presence detection, window opening and closing functions, with consumption indication, etc.
