When choosing a radiator, you should pay attention to the material of the sections, since it is he who affects the heat transfer of the future battery, its severity and durability. The most commonly used are steel, cast iron, aluminum and their alloys. For the correct selection of the battery, it is necessary to take into account the type of heating system (centralized or autonomous), heat transfer, as well as the area of the heated room.
Radiators of water heating differ in materials of manufacture and design:
- panel (consist of two sheets and form a box);
- sectional;
- tubular (several bent pipes).

Rifar Monolit 500
Monolit bimetal radiator is one of the new products of the company Rifar. The manufacturer claims that the service life of such a heating element is 25 years. Battery channels are made of high corrosion resistance steel, and their thickness is absolutely equal to the thickness of ordinary steel water pipes. Also, in this equipment there are no joints between sections, and the maximum temperature of its operation reaches 135 degrees. Monolit 500 radiators are designed for lower connection to the heating system and are used in the organization of radiant heating systems or the improvement of classical heating circuits. Also, one of the main advantages of the radiator is its indifference to the type of coolant and the quality of its preparation. RIFAR sets a warranty period for MONOLIT model radiators of 25 years, subject to installation and operating conditions.
- long service life;
- increased rust resistance;
- easy installation thanks to standard threaded connections.
- high percentage of marriage;
- sharp aluminum shimmers are possible;
- poor welds due to which leaks are possible.
Global STYLE PLUS500 x6
It is the only Global bimetallic radiator with a depth of 95 mm, which allows to demonstrate higher heat transfer rates. Due to its steel design it has a significant margin of safety and long-term operation. Able to work in centralized and autonomous heating systems with operating pressures up to 35 atm. inclusive. These radiators are made in Italy and are delivered in cardboard boxes in a film. The inner surface of the battery is made of steel and provides enhanced characteristics of resistance to hydrogen. The radiator is compact and does not take up much space, it protrudes only 12 cm from the wall.
- high heat dissipation;
- foreign production;
- compact minimalistic design.
- very high cost;
- lack of fasteners included.
Rifar Base 500 × 6
RIFAR Base 500 is made of bimetallic alloy. Center distance 500 mm. Designed for use in water heating systems of residential and office buildings. The battery section is made of steel pipe, which is filled with aluminum alloy under high pressure. This technology allows the product to provide high strength and performance characteristics. The radiator can be used both in steam and water heating systems, and the maximum operating temperature reaches 110 degrees. The special core design allows 1224 W of heat to be generated. Ideal for installation in heating systems of an apartment building.
- the possibility of operation in steam and water heating systems;
- maximum temperature - 110 degrees;
- use in the construction of two metals.
- marriage occurs;
- high price.
Kermi FKO 22 500
Kermi FKO 22 500 is a two-row heating battery and consists of two profiled fins panels. Heat transfer is ensured by the operation of two convectors, which increase the efficiency of the device. Made of high quality cold rolled steel 1.25 mm thick. It can be executed both in a floor, and wall format. It has a high service life, resistance to high pressure and external influences. The surface of the radiator is lined, and a special technology of painting in three layers has increased its service life. Pressure control in the Kermi FKO 22 500 is carried out by a valve in automatic mode by reducing the pressure level with the necessary heating. Kermi steel radiator is ideal for autonomous heating systems.
- the presence of floor and wall formats;
- good paintwork;
- automatic pressure control system.
- only for closed heating systems;
- the maximum working pressure of the heat carrier is no more than 10 atmospheres.
Royal Thermo PianoForte Tower
The bimetal Royal Thermo PianoForte Tower has a unique design that fits perfectly into the interior of any home. This model can be executed with 18 and 22 sections. It has a high level of heat transfer due to the large number of sections, front convective holes and additional fins. Royal Thermo PianoForte Tower is available in three colors on the market: black, white and silver. The special Oxsilan 9807 coating, which is applied to the radiator section before painting, provides enhanced rust resistance and a longer service life. The painting process uses environmentally friendly AkzoNobel and FreiLacke nano paints.
