Heat Loss
*In order to generate a realistic maximum
heat loss calculation of an average living
room, we have used this model and used the
following data:-

Storage Heater
To heat this space using a Storage heater
you would need a 3.400KW (input) unit
outputting at maximum (2KW)
This unit would draw electricity for 7 hours
at rate of 3.4KW = 23.80KW off-peak rate
@ 0.0844c per unit = €2.01
Farho Radiator
To heat this space using a Farho radiator
you would need a 1.210KW (input) outputting
at a maximum (1.925KW)
This unit would draw electricity for 5 hours
at rate of 1.21KW = 6.05KW normal rate@
@ 0.1597c per unit = €0.97
This gives a daily saving using the Farho
product of over €1 per day ex vat

Farho
radiators combine many of
the advantages of other
heating systems |
 |
FARHO
radiators represent the
fruits of several years’
research in the field of
heating. They are
characterised by combining
the majority of the
advantages of current
systems given that they
employ the most reliable
features in terms of optimal
heat emission (aluminium
radiators) and energy source
(electricity). As a
result of their high level
of heat transmission by
radiation and convection,
they provide excellent
heat performance,
making the most of the
electricity consumed. |
|
The aluminium radiation
elements are identical to
those that are used for
water heating, thus they
offer numerous advantages: |
 |
They are static, light, east
to fit and do not change
with time, thus they are
conservation and maintenance
free. |
 |
They provide a high level of
heat emission, some 150
kcal/h per element. |
 |
Several sizes can be
manufactured in order to fit
in with room size, which
enables the client to have
direct and instantaneous
heating in all rooms,
strictly adjusted to his or
her real heating
requirements at any given
moment in time. |
