Rising heating costs are increasingly becoming a reason for making decisions related to the modernization and replacement of existing heating sources. Such an investment can bring significant savings, especially if the choice is a heat pump or an energy-efficient gas boiler. However, we must remember that the cost will not only be the replacement of the heat source itself, but also the installation of appropriate heating, which will ensure the energy and economic efficiency of the entire undertaking. And contrary to popular opinion - not only underfloor heating will provide energy-efficient home heating. An effective, economical solution that ensures lower bills will also be Purmo panel radiators.

Will the heat pump work with low-temperature panel radiators?
In order to improve energy efficiency in existing houses, heat pumps are increasingly being installed, which on the one hand guarantee high thermal comfort, while minimizing heating costs, and on the other - are environmentally friendly because they use renewable energy sources. However, many investors still have many dilemmas before making a decision. Why? There is a common belief on the market that replacing an old source with a heat pump involves the need to install underfloor or wall heating, and consequently - the need to perform time-consuming work, such as tearing out old flooring, not to mention the financial aspect of the entire undertaking.
Meanwhile, the only truth is that a heat pump works best with low-temperature heating systems, which include surface heating. More precisely, wall and floor installations definitely do not exhaust the possibilities in this area. Low-temperature panel radiators can also be successfully used with a heat pump, and solutions adapted to use in modernized buildings can be easily found in the Purmo brand's offer.
A wide range of warm possibilities
Properly selected Purmo brand panel radiators cooperate with low-temperature heat sources, e.g. heat pumps or modern condensing boilers, as effectively as underfloor heating installations. Thanks to their universal and efficient design containing an internal convector, they intensify heat exchange, providing significantly higher power compared to aluminium radiators. Steel panel radiators in the case of the standard type 22 model (10 cm deep) and similar other dimensions (i.e. height and length) have a power higher by approx. 25%. On the other hand, in the case of using thicker type 33 radiators (15 cm deep), steel radiators are even as much as 70% more efficient, and therefore can have much more compact dimensions with the same power.
What are the benefits of using Purmo panel radiators?
The wide range of Purmo panel radiators provides solutions for the most demanding modernizations. The manufacturer offers models with various types of connections, which significantly facilitates the work of installers - side, bottom, bottom middle, as well as a wide selection of available types and varied depth of models, adapted to the most demanding investments. Thanks to the implemented conveniences and flexible solutions for installers (e.g. in radiator models with bottom connection: Flex, Plan Flex, Ramo Flex, Tinos H Flex the unique possibility of changing the side of the insert and thermostatic head installation at any time, even during use), the replacement process is quick and trouble-free.
Universal Purmo Flex radiators | Purmo's offer includes the widest selection of available sizes on the Polish market - both lengths (from 400 mm up to 3000 mm!) and heights (from 200 mm to 900 mm), as well as the most possibilities and solutions for vertical radiators. If necessary, Purmo radiators can be mounted directly on the floor on stands with high glazing, this also applies to models in the decorative version. Additionally, thanks to their original design, Purmo panel radiators become an extremely attractive element of any interior design. The wide range includes many models dedicated to replacement - from the most popular, budget models with a standard profiled panel, through versions with decorative flat front panels, to decorative panel radiators (e.g. Kos H Faro H, Tinos H Flex) for demanding customers. |
As standard, Purmo radiators are protected against corrosion by a second-generation cataphoresis paint coating, and for a small additional fee, the customer can order a Purmo radiator in a selected color according to the RAL palette. In the case of rooms with increased humidity, it is possible to use steel radiators with additional protection through galvanizing.
Purmo panel radiators in the Onninen wholesaler
Purmo offers several models that are perfect for modernization and replacement:
Purmo Compact - a radiator that will also prove perfect in the case of modernisation and replacement of the installation due to the same spacing of connections as the old cast iron radiators;
Plan Compact - this radiator is distinguished by its completely flat front panel;- Ramo Compact characterized by modern design;
horizontal decorative radiator Tinos H Flex or vertical Tinos V; - recently, Purmo's offer has been expanded with a new, even more flexible solution - the universal Flex panel radiator, its advantage is the ability to choose the side of installation of the insert and thermostatic head;
- in a situation where there is relatively little space for installing the radiator, the best choice will be a type 33 radiator, i.e. a radiator composed of three plates and three convectors, which guarantees greater heating power of the device;
- a very advantageous alternative is also the latest generation of modern fan coils – VIDO S2, which offers solutions in both heating and cooling installations. It can also be combined with another low-temperature system, e.g. with the above-mentioned floor heating systems, creating a solution that maintains optimal comfort in the rooms.
