Electric heating radiators have long been in demand among consumers, especially in the winter season, when the temperature outside the window drops well below zero.
Even if the house is equipped with a stationary heating system, it often happens that suddenly there are various problems and you have to look for alternative sources of heat.
In this case, it is the electric radiators that are the most optimal way out of the situation, which allows maintaining the optimum temperature regime in the interior of the house.
There are several different types of electric type radiators and before deciding which ones are best, you need to carefully study the operation parameters of each one.
At present oil, energy saving, vacuum models of devices are offered, there are wall and panel variants, in most of which the main heating element are heating elements.
Of course, when choosing an electric radiator, you should pay attention to a variety of performance indicators, including compliance with the OKPD, but for many consumers the main criterion is the price of the device.

type vacuum radiators
operation features The majority of houses for heating a room use a heating water circuit that feeds the heated coolant from the system or boiler to a stationary radiator.
In its turn, the electric type radiator performs the heating of the room air due to the radiation of heat, which is obtained by converting electrical energy into thermal energy.
At present, electric radiators can be divided into several different types.
Separately it is necessary to allocate panel wall convectors, oil devices in which warming up of a working liquid carry out special ТЭНы, and also thermal guns and fan heaters working from an electricity.
Regardless of the type of electric radiator that is used to heat the room, in each of them several different elements interact in a special way with each other.
Each such radiator necessarily has a heating element that operates on electric current and provides the necessary warming up of the room.
The price of an electric type radiator, mainly depends on the type of heating element, as well as its power ratings.
It should be noted that price is not the only factor that should be taken into account when choosing a radiator that works from electricity.
For a particular room, it should be selected based on the power, as well as the overall dimensions and installation location.
In the event that there are limitations in size, it is better to choose a wall-mounted version of an electric type radiator.
Vacuum panel models are also well-proven, which are economical and suitable for almost any type of room.
It is necessary to pay attention to the material from which the device is manufactured, as well as its safety characteristics and compliance with the OKPD standards.
Which type of electric type radiators are best suited for a particular room can be understood only if you carefully study all the parameters of its operation.
Some types of
devices If the main criterion for choosing an electric type radiator is its price, then it is best to stop using oil devices in which heating elements are heating elements.
In them the heat of the working fluid is transmitted directly through the heating elements, after which the heating of the housing of the device takes place.

These radiators are reliable and safe, and besides, they are additionally equipped with various regulators that allow heating the heating elements to the required temperature.
The main advantage of electric radiators of this type is a relatively low price.
Also for heating a small room it is possible to use aluminum radiators, which work from electricity.
These devices have a low inertia, which makes it possible to heat the space in a fairly short period of time.
There are wall and floor models, and as a heating element are all the same heaters. The price of such an aggregate is relatively low, which explains their popularity.
Also it is possible to note convector wall radiators, which work from electricity.
These devices look like oil units in appearance, but they have a more flat and compact design.
As in other types of electric radiators, in the convector main heating element are TENs, through which air passes.
These devices have two grilles, one located at the bottom and designed to capture cold air masses, and the second is at the top and serves to exit heated air.
These electric type radiators are distinguished by their high reliability, ease of installation, besides they have a sufficiently high efficiency.
As a rule, the price of such radiators depends mainly on the model and the set of additional functions.
Vacuum type radiators
If the price does not play a fundamental role in the selection of an electrical stand-alone heating appliance, it is recommended to pay attention to vacuum heating systems.
These vacuum devices are best placed in premises with a large area, as compared to other similar devices, they are more economical.

Vacuum units also have special heaters, which heat the working fluid.
Inside such devices there is a special liquid that has the property of evaporating very quickly.
Before the device is put into operation, the liquid is at the bottom of the device and when it warms up, it gradually spreads heat throughout the body.
To improve heat transfer parameters, vacuum cells are made of aluminum with a finned surface.
Vacuum heating devices manufacturers necessarily supply temperature regulators, as well as emergency shutdown controllers, which makes their daily operation as safe as possible.
It should be noted that vacuum batteries should be operated only in a horizontal position and in no case should they be tilted.
Despite the fact that the price of such devices is quite high, at their operation it is possible to reduce power consumption by almost two times.
In addition, they are easy to assemble in place, and the connection is made to a conventional electrical network.
These devices do not require the installation of various additional equipment, as well as wiring.
Vacuum batteries have an attractive appearance and will look stylish in almost any interior.
In addition, it should be noted and their wide range of temperatures, at which they can successfully operate and heat large enough spaces.
Vacuum heaters are different and their high autonomy, which allows them to operate even if one of the heaters fails.

In order to answer the question which of the radiators working directly from electricity is better, it is first of all necessary to understand the basic parameters of each of them.
Each type of such devices has both its advantages and disadvantages, which should also be taken into account.
In any case, which devices are optimal for heating a particular space, you can understand only if you consider all the operating parameters of the devices together, as well as take into account the specifics and specificity of the premises.
