The selection of a heater often depends on the number of models representing the company. After all, when a company has 3-5 types of batteries for all types of premises, then basically the buyer will not even consider such options and will pay attention to other manufacturers who have a more diverse choice. Purmo radiators are presented on the market in more than thirty types for any heating systems and for different rooms. Such a choice of heaters helps a potential buyer to choose this particular manufacturer, which makes it popular and in demand.
Purmo radiators are manufactured by a Finnish company that has its own large subsidiary in Poland. In addition, the heating devices of this company have a 10-year warranty period and are divided into two types: panel and tubular (for bathrooms).
Features of Purmo tubular batteries
Tubular type of radiators should be highlighted. Most of the models are used for the bathroom and basically they perform the duties of a heated towel rail. Unlike batteries from other manufacturers, Purmo radiators have a number of positive features, such as:
- For the vertical type of batteries, these twogroups:
- traditional with special tubular sections;
- with departments offset from the middle of the heater.
- Horizontal radiators can be created in curved form for various design interiors.
- The heater can be with one vertical collector. Special horizontal sections are mounted in it so that towels of any size can be dried. This type of battery is non-standard, but extremely convenient.
Tubular Battery Models
In addition, the company produces several models of tubular heaters for other premises. For example, a radiator such as Delta Bar. Its collectors are located horizontally, while the pipes remain in a vertical position, the tabletop itself is already at the top. This type of battery is perfect for a bar counter and at the same time it is convenient and practical, and most importantly, it will fit many design solutions.
To this we can add that the company that produces Purmo radiators has four special models for simple rooms in its arsenal. They are different from each other, each has its own characteristics.
Panel heaters
Purmo steel panel radiator is especially popular in Russia. It has long proved itself with quality and a slightly non-standard height. Although this height at first glance seems rather non-compact, many designers have created many interiors just forPurmo radiators. The price of the devices of this company is on average from 2 to 8 thousand rubles, depending on the volume of the selected device, which makes them quite affordable for the common man.
Purmo Compact radiators can be distinguished from the series of the most popular panel types of batteries. They are produced mainly for ordinary apartments in a multi-storey building. This type of panel radiator has a side connection, which is the most common. Purmo Compact is presented on the market of heating devices in three types 11, 22 and 33, each of them has its own design features and characteristics.
Characteristics of Purmo Compact heating appliances
The heat dissipation of a radiator depends not only on the height of the appliance, but also on its length. Purmo radiators have a height of 30 to 900 cm, and a length of 40 to 300 cm, so before installing the battery, you need to calculate its power, and then select a place for the calculated parameters. To simplify the calculation, you can rely on the following coefficients:
- Type 11. With a height of 30 cm, a length of 40 cm has a thermal output of 218.
- Type 11. Height 900 cm, length 40 cm, with a heat output of 1314.
- Type 22. With a height of 50 cm, a length of 100 cm will have a thermal output of 1407.
- Type 22. Height 90 cm, length 300 cm, while the heat output is 7167.
- Type 33. If its height is 30 cm and its length is 100 cm, then the heat output will be 1347.
- Type 33. Height 30 cm, length 40 cm, while the heat output is 2356.
Thus, you can choose the necessary power for yourself and find out in advance the dimensions of the desired radiator.
Design and equipment of Purmo radiators
Due to their design, Purmo Compact batteries are capable of operating at pressures up to 10 atmospheres and at temperatures not exceeding 110 °C. For a private house, a radiator is best suited, but it can also serve in multi-storey buildings for many years, despite failures in the heating system. Because only the best materials are in the structure of the heater, and water hammer will not damage it in any way.
Although traditionally white is used for painting batteries in production, any shades from the catalog can be used for Purmo heaters if you specify this in advance in the order.
Besides, if a lower type of connection is required, then Ventil Compact is the most demanded. He has his own basic kit, it includes:
- Mounting brackets.
- Special plugs.
- Mayevsky's tap to bleed air from the system.
- Thermal valve to control the amount of coolant in the device.
The valve for controlling the incoming coolant is included only with this model, for others it will have to be purchased separately if necessary, but special shut-off and connecting units do not come with Ventil Compact, they must be purchased separately. You should pay attention to how the pipes are locatedheating, because the node is angular and straight.
purmo panel radiator product reviews
Due to their high heat transfer and a 10-year warranty, such batteries have become very popular in Russia. As evidenced by the many positive reviews, and although some of them also criticize the design of the product, they mostly talk about their pluses.
Many people recommend these batteries because they think they are aesthetic and beautiful. Users also note a high heating rate. With Purmo radiators, as the reviews say, even in a cold winter with open windows it is warm in the room.
But, in addition to positive, there are also negative reviews. Some owners of such radiators were upset that soon after installation, microcracks appeared on them, the batteries began to leak. But thanks to the guarantee and quality service, the product was promptly replaced.
