Radiatorsused to be mostly made of cast iron. Cast iron radiators are heavy, noisy and eat up energy. Nowadays, people prefer steel or aluminium. Aluminium radiators in particular offer many advantages. You can read all about them in this blog!

1. Aluminium radiators heat up quickly

Aluminium has better heat conduction than steel or cast iron. The heat in an aluminium radiator is therefore better conducted. In addition, an aluminium radiator has a low water content - about one-fifth of that of a traditional radiator. As a result, the radiator heats up at lightning speed. The room can be heated up to four times faster with an aluminium radiator.

2. Aluminium radiators save energy

An aluminium radiator contains less heat than a steel radiator. So less water needs to be heated, which means less heating. This saves on energy bills.

3. Aluminium radiators are light

An aluminium radiator is lighter than a traditional steel radiator, up to three times lighter. This makes it easier to mount an aluminium radiator. You can easily hang it on the wall without having to anchor it deeply. No major work or breaking is required.

4. Aluminium radiators do not rust

Aluminium is corrosion-resistant. So it is perfect for humid rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens.

5. Aluminium radiators are environmentally friendly

Aluminium not only heats up quickly, it is also extremely durable and environmentally-friendly. An aluminium radiator can be fully recycled. Because they also use less energy than traditional radiators, they are less harmful to the environment. Win-win in other words!

6. Aluminium radiators are available in different models and colours

Radiators don't have to be tucked away in a corner or behind the curtain anymore. Radiators can be seen! Aluminium radiators are a feast for the eyes. With the variety of colours, models and designs, there is something for everyone. An aluminium radiator can be combined with any living style. Are you going for flat and smooth or modern and round?
