Select colour of your new radiator.

When choosing the colour please pay attention to paint type. In our palette it is structure, matt and glossy. We recommend to make a choice with a support of our printed colour palette, where you find colour samples, which perfectly reflect paint’s look and texture.

Select room, where you want to assemble the radiator.

When choosing the radiator for a given room you have to pay attention to both – its look and functionality. Taking into consideration also possibilities connected with accessories’ selection, offer filter per rooms is our proposal of radiators’ selection for given interiors. Below you find two examples:

Perfect solution for hall, corridor or bedroom, due to big, glass panel mounted in the radiator.

We recommend mainly for kitchen due to big glossy cover, you can write on.

Define radiator’s width.

When choosing radiator’s width, it is necessary to take into consideration the distance of at least 10 cm from the wall.

In case of V-type connection, due to the head, which is sticking out beyond the body of the radiator, you have to add additional 10 cm, including in total 20 cm.

Define radiator’s height

When defining radiator’s height, you have to take into consideration place available for radiator’s assembly and access to it after it is mounted.

Radiators are usually mounted on so called „cold walls”, which means walls where heat losses outside the room are potentially the biggest. These are mainly entries and glazed surfaces.

Radiators are mounted 10 cm from the floor, window sill and ceiling, in order to maintain heat circulation and exchange from radiator. If you don’t keep indicated distance, the temperature will disturb or block head’s proper work.

In case of planning electric heating element assembly, you have to take into consideration required distance of the radiator from the floor, enabling its easy mounting. In this case, you have to remember to plan power outlet for the electric heating element near to the radiator.

Define radiator’s connection type to central heating system.

Spacing of radiator’s connection has to be adjusted to planned or already existing spacing of connectors in the walls. You should also check spacing between connector and wall (G).

In the product data sheet in Instal-Projekt technical catalogue there is information about minimum required spacing of connector from the wall. Link to catalogue.

Define radiator’s heating output

Where you can get information about heat requirements of our flat?

- Building administrator in case of homeowners association

- Central heating system design or technical documentation of the building

- Central heating system designer in case if documentation is lacking

You have to pay attention to central heating pressure and compare it to radiator’s maximum pressure. You also have to pay attention to central heating system operation temperature and compare it with given radiator’s data.

In our materials we indicate 3 most frequent working parameters of system operation:

Tz/Tp/To – Feed temperature/ Return temperature/Ambient temperature

90/70/20 – for multi-family high residentials

75/65/20 – for multi-family residentials up to 5 floors or single-detached dwelling (older)

55/45/20 – for new multi-family residentials and single-detached dwelling

In case if you select radiators in development with different working parameters than above-indicated, we recommend calculating heating output of chosen radiator in prepared by us heat output recalculating table, in our technical catalogue in „Selection, mounting and use.”.
