Energy-efficient Skirting Heating
Efficient heat delivery – 100% Highly responsive – 1.0 Even heat distribution Unobtrusive Retrofittable Works with gas, oil, heat pumps (or just
electricity)
www.skirting-heating.com
“Like the gentle warmth of the sun”
Great feeling of comfort at low average temperature
No hot or cold spots Heats from the lowest point upwards Doesn’t deplete oxygen in the room No “hot foot” syndrome
www.skirting-heating.com
Quick and Efficient Control
Rapid warm up only .266 litres/metre of water doesn’t need to heat the floor slab
It’s its own heat distribution system no pipes to hide heats the room, not the ceiling
www.skirting-heating.com
Easily retro-fitted
Uses standard 15mm components Fit to radiator provisions Surface mount where no provisions No need to replace floor Electrical resistance version needs no
boiler

The Coanda EffectNamed after its discover, Romanian aerodynamicist
Henri-Marie Coanda (1885-1972)
“Coanda effect or wall-attachment effect, the tendency of a moving fluid, either liquid or gas, to attach itself to a surface and flow along it. As a fluid moves across a surface a certain amount of friction (called “skin friction”) occurs between the fluid and the surface, which tends to slow the moving fluid. This resistance to the flow of the fluid pulls the fluid towards the surface, causing it stick to the surface.”
- Columbia Encyclopedia

The Coanda Effect - applied
Fit skirting to exterior walls Warms and dries the wall Forms insulating layer Heat radiates from the walls Warmed air circulates Works well even on badly insulated walls!

No Hot or Cold Spots

How does it compare to radiators?
www.skirting-heating.com
How does it compare to UFH?
Quicker response No slab to warm up (or cool down!) Much less water to warm
More even temperature distribution Can use with real wood floors No problems with carpet underlay Easily retrofitted Easier to install, repair or modify
www.skirting-heating.com
How does it compare to other skirting systems?
Highest output in a compact system, about twice the power of Thermaskirt
(ΔT=50K of 229.25W/metre) Needs less Runs more efficiently
Uses standard 15mm copper piping Water only ever in contact with copper A standard plumbing solution for every situation
Aluminium fins warm the air internally Lower surface temperature - <43oC at 80oC Flow
Flexible mounting of components Less noise

Cut-away Section
Shows pipes, fins, backplate, top profile, mounting clips and front panel
www.skirting-heating.com
Connecting sections
Use standard solder, push-fit, compression or press-fit connectors (must be less than 23 mm OD) e.g. Cuprofit (details)
Connecting at corners
Use 2 x elbow 03-1005 with appropriate connectors
www.skirting-heating.com
www.skirting-heating.com
Connecting flow to return
Use “U” connector
03-1000 with choice of solder, push-fit, compression or press-fit connectors
Neater Corners
www.skirting-heating.com
Use 01-1014 for internal or 01-1015 for external corners
www.skirting-heating.com
Ending runs
Use ready-made
RH and LH end pieces

Electrical Inserts
200 W/meter Use where
wet systems are just not possible

How much will I need?Method 1
What room volume? What insulation standard? What heating method? What water temperature? Minimum local temperature?
Estimate with Excel Calculator
(Available on request)
www.skirting-heating.com
How much will I need?Method 2
Assume approx 20cms per M3 Typically about 2 walls out of four (for very
large rooms, use method 1) Apply wherever possible to exterior walls
2 walls on corner rooms Minimum 1 on others
For aesthetics use empty Climaboard® for the remaining wall space
