Wall heating

Wall heating is a form of heating where heat is generated and transferred through the walls of a room instead of traditional radiators or underfloor heating. This heating method is becoming more and more popular in several areas. Here is a basic explanation of how wall heating works and what its benefits are:

How wall heating works:

Electric wall heating: This form of wall heating uses electric resistors or electric floor cables placed in the walls. Heat is generated by electric current and transferred through the walls into the room. The room is gradually heated, while the warm air rises upwards, which achieves an even distribution of temperature.

Water wall heating: This solution uses water pipes or pipes placed in the walls. Hot water passes through these pipes, heating the wall. The heat then spreads into the room through the radiant process and convection.

Advantages of wall heating:

Even heating: Wall heating ensures an even temperature distribution in the room, which leads to the creation of a comfortable environment without cold spots.

Space saving: Wall heating does not take up additional space in the room, which is advantageous in small spaces or where there is not enough space for traditional radiators or floor heating.

Aesthetically appealing: Wall heating is discreet and can be easily hidden behind furniture or wall finishes, improving the aesthetics of the room.

Low maintenance costs: Wall heating requires almost no maintenance and has no moving parts, which reduces the risk of failure.

Fast heating: Electric wall heating can heat up a room quickly because there is no need for hot water distribution or other long pre-heating.

Energy efficient: In the case of well-insulated walls, wall heating can be energy efficient because it minimizes heat loss to the surroundings.

It is important to note that the efficiency and benefits of wall heating can depend on the type of system and the quality of the installation. Before deciding for this type of heating, it is advisable to consult with an expert and evaluate the specific requirements and characteristics of the room you want to heat.
