How is the ART FACTORY plate radiator made?
The ART FACTORY radiator is made up of a flat and thin steel plate on the back of which there are steel pipes, through which the hot water flows.
The surface being made of steel is magnetized, useful for combining it with our magnetized hangers in the desired point.
In what heights can it be purchased?
Vertical models have heights of1400-1600-1800-2000mm
Horizontal models have heights500-600-700-900mm
In what widths can it be purchased?
The Vertical models have widths of mm:
300-400-500-600-700-900
The horizontal models have heights from mm:
400-500-600-700-800-900-1000-1100-1200
1400-1600-1800-2000-2300-2600-3000
The ART FACTORY radiator
is it manufactured with different thicknesses?
Yes, the Art Factory vertical radiator comes in 3 different thicknesses:
63-71-103 mm for vertical models
67-101-158 mm for horizontal models
Can the ART FACTORY radiator have the center distances for replacing the aluminum radiators?
Yes, the Art Factory radiator has special measures that allow the aluminum radiators to be replaced without modifying the pipes and therefore do not require plumbing and masonry work.
The models in question have the following dimensions:
Heights 600mm with double center distance 540 and 500mm
Heights 700mm with double center distance 640 and 600mm
But how do I figure out which model is best suited to my environment?
The range of ART FACTORY radiators is made up of models with different thicknesses, from 63 mm up to 103 mm, all very thin
The great peculiarity of this range allows us to be able to offer the customer a radiator that with the same size can have thermal efficiency in theultra power version, up to 4 times higher than the basic one.
How does the front plate heat up?
The pipes located in the rear part are crossed by the hot water from the heating system. In turn, they transmit the heat to the front plate, which spreads it, thanks to its specific design, evenly throughout the room.
What are the differences between the thicknesses
of the ART FACTORY radiator?
Art Factory radiators have been engineered to be able to provide high thermal yields in the presence of the smallest possible footprint, the range includes various thicknesses that allow in the same space so as to have radiators with very high thermal yields in the face of a greater thickness. greater heat is obtained because inside the radiator there are a greater number of pipes which allow the hot water to circulate and therefore emit greater heat.
What material is the plate radiator made of?
Steel, both for the plate and for the pipes.
How do I know what model of radiator
is it for my environment?
To best optimize the dimensions of the radiator, it is necessary to know the surface area in square meters of the room, plus some parameters, such as, for example, thermal insulation, room exposure, geographical position.
Are there sharp edges in the radiators?
No, Art Factory plate radiators are manufactured for use in domestic environments and are therefore equipped with rounded corners and screwed sides.
What are Watts?
Watts are a unit of measurement for the amount of heat that the radiator can supply. The greater the number of Watts, the greater the quantity of heat supplied by the radiator.
What are calories?
Kcal are a unit of measurement used in the past and remained in common use for historical reasons. One Kcal equals approximately 1.16 Watts.
What is meant by wheelbase?
It is the distance expressed in mm between the hot water delivery pipe and the return pipe.
How is the radiator connected?
to the heating circuit?
Normally there is a valve and a holder.
The valve serves to regulate the flow of water passing through the radiator. The more water that passes through, the greater the amount of heat emitted by the radiator. The holder has the purpose of balancing the flow of water between the various radiators in the house. The valve can be recognized because it has a knob that can be adjusted by hand.
The holder has a cover under which there is a screw. The lockshield should not normally be tampered with, it is adjusted by the plumber during installation. The valve can be opened/closed by hand in order to increase/decrease the heat flow generated by the radiator. In more modern installations, the regulations require the use of thermostatic valves. These are equipped with graduated scales or displays on which to set the desired temperature. Once the temperature has been set, the valve autonomously increases/decreases the water flow in order to maintain the desired temperature.
I'd better install a development radiator
vertical or horizontal?
The installation of a heating body is now part of the home furnishings, therefore in addition to expressing the heating function, the Art Factory radiator is also part of the furnishings, being completely customizable based on the desired style of furniture. Of course, in an environment with very high ceilings, it is advisable to install a vertical radiator, the same is true if you have limited horizontal space available.
Where is the plate radiator made?
The ART FACTORY radiator is 100% made in Italy.
