Radiators: Fondital and Russkiy Radiator
A radiator is a heating device that transfers heat from hot water supplied by a boiler or heating system into a room. Two different radiators designed for the same room can vary significantly in heating speed, weight, system requirements, and price. Therefore, choosing a radiator based solely on its appearance is not advisable. First, it is important to determine the material, required heating capacity, and operating pressure of the system.
Euroclima offers radiators from Azerbaijan: Russkiy Radiator. Fondital is an Italian company known for its aluminium radiators. Russkiy Radiator is a Russian brand that manufactures radiators designed for hot-water heating systems. Euroclima is the official representative of Russkiy Radiator in Azerbaijan. You can explore the models available from both brands in the sections above.
How to Choose the Right Material
Aluminium radiators heat up and cool down quickly and are lightweight. They are suitable for private houses and apartments where room temperature needs to be adjusted quickly using a thermostat. Their lightweight construction also makes wall installation easier.
Steel panel radiators have a simple construction and are cost-effective. They transfer heat through both radiation and convection. In heating systems with poor water quality, particular attention should be paid to internal corrosion.
Bimetallic radiators have a steel interior and an aluminium exterior, making them resistant to high pressure. They are frequently chosen for multi-storey buildings and central heating systems. To determine which material is suitable, check the maximum operating pressure of the heating system beforehand.
Vertical and Horizontal Radiators
Horizontal radiators are the most common type and are usually installed beneath windows. This placement helps distribute heat evenly throughout the room and counteracts cold air entering from the window.
Vertical radiators are used in rooms with limited wall space, where the area beneath the window is obstructed, in narrow corridors, and in interiors requiring a distinctive design solution.
Fondital Radiators
Fondital is an Italian company known for its aluminium radiators. This section features aluminium radiators suitable for private houses, apartments, offices, and commercial properties.
Aluminium radiators work well with conventional and condensing boilers because they heat up quickly, even when operating at lower water temperatures. The dimensions, number of sections, and heating output of each model are provided on its product page.
Russkiy Radiator
Russkiy Radiator is a Russian brand that manufactures radiators for hot-water heating systems. Its products stand out for both their technical specifications and appearance. They are used in heating systems for private houses, offices, restaurants, and large facilities.
As the official representative of this brand, Euroclima also provides after-sales technical support.
How to Calculate the Required Heating Capacity
For rooms with a standard ceiling height of approximately 2.7 metres, an initial estimate is around 100 W of heating capacity per 1 m² of floor area.
For corner rooms, rooms with large windows, poor insulation, or rooms located on the ground floor, this figure should be increased by 15–20%.
For a quick calculation, enter your room dimensions into our calculator.
If accurate results are required for a project, a qualified engineer should perform the heat-loss calculation.
Installation and Connection to the Heating System
It is important to install the radiator at the required distances from the wall and windowsill and to equip each unit with an air vent valve and shut-off valves.
If air remains trapped in the system, the upper part of the radiator may stay cold, preventing the room from heating properly.
After a new installation or repair, air must be released from all radiators when the heating system is filled for the first time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are aluminium radiators compatible with boilers?
Yes. Aluminium radiators work well with boilers because they heat up quickly and respond rapidly to temperature changes. The operating pressure of the system must not exceed the radiator's permitted operating pressure.
How do I determine the number of sections?
Divide the total heating capacity required for the room by the heating output of a single radiator section and round the result up to the nearest whole number.
The heating output of each section depends on the model and water temperature, so the exact value should be taken from the product page.
When should a radiator be replaced?
Replacing a radiator is recommended if it leaks, has accumulated internal deposits that prevent even heating, or is unsuitable for the system's operating pressure.
