Central heating optimisation

Everything you can do to optimise your central heating system

 

Have you noticed that spaces like boiler rooms, attics and crawl spaces are surprisingly warm? The technical areas of large buildings, in particular, can get extremely warm. This is often due to uninsulated central heating pipes, combi boilers and boilers. And it's all unnecessary heat loss, as these spaces are mostly not used. A properly-insulated central heating system reduces this heat loss. This, in turn, will save you energy, while also reducing the workload of your combi boiler or boiler, thus ensuring that the boiler works better and therefore lasts longer.

Radiator foil and central heating pipe insulation

 

Radiator foil reduces heat loss and increases the efficiency of radiators. Radiators radiate heat from all sides, including towards the wall. So a lot of heat is lost to the exterior of the house, especially if the wall is poorly insulated. TONZON HR Radiator Foil can be fitted directly onto the back of the radiator, stopping heat loss to the outside wall. Read more about TONZON HR Radiator Foil.

In addition, central heating pipes constantly lose heat. Insulating them properly keeps the water warmer and reduces heating demand on the boiler. The best way to insulate heating pipes is with a combination of standard pipe insulation and TONZON HR Lagging Foil. Find out more about insulating central heating pipes.

Optimise your radiators

Optimising radiators goes further than just adding Radiator Foil. Heat flow from radiators located under a windowsill can be improved considerably using Windowsill Foil. Unnecessary heating of the windowsill is reduced, and warm air is better able to enter the room. The next step is the use of radiator fans. These fans blow hot air into the room and warm it even faster, which means that the radiator consumes much less energy to heat the room.

 

Central heating boiler and combi boiler foil

 

Combi boilers and boilers are often already insulated, yet their exterior surface can often still reach 30º C. Because they are so much warmer than their environment, they constantly lose heat. Which means more heating is needed to maintain room temperature. TONZON has a simple solution: hang TONZON foil around the boiler to stop heat radiating. The foil can be attached with magnets. So it can easily be removed for maintenance.

After all these measures have been taken, the central heating will work a lot more efficiently, and less energy will be needed to heat the house and to maintain its temperature. Now is the best time to revisit the settings of your CV. Central heating water settings can save even more energy. In addition, the temperature of the boiler can also be set a little lower, for instance at 60.

Frequently asked questions

For your convenience
What is the difference between 50-centimetre-wide radiator foil and deluxe radiator foil?

Standard radiator foil can be used to insulate normal radiators. De luxe radiator foil is thicker and has undergone more processing, making it a bit more expensive. There are no differences in quality. De luxe foil can be used when the foil remains in view and a more attractive surface is desired. This foil is also used on roller blinds, to reflect the sun's rays to the exterior as short-wave radiation, preventing heat from building up inside.

Yes! If the central heating system has been installed first and insulation measures have only been taken later, most radiators will have overcapacity. Convector ribs can then be ignored and the radiator back can be completely covered with foil. Should the radiator still give off too little heat, the following solution can be applied. Stretch the foil from left to right over the ribs, leaving the vertical channels open-ended. As the top of the radiator is always the warmest, it is advisable to still apply a strip of foil to the remaining part at the top of the radiator. Lagging foil can also be used for this purpose.

TONZON HR Radiator Foil is white on one side and silver on the other. This foil is often used for interior sun protection, but can also be applied to the back of the radiator. The white side then faces inside and the silver side faces the wall. This foil can also be used for radiators that face glass and is also available entirely in silver.

Yes! An underfloor convector can be made more effective by insulating it better on the inside of the underfloor convector, and from the outside, in the crawl space. The outside of the underfloor convector can be insulated in the crawl space using TONZON thermos cushions, in the same way as a bathtub. The inside of the underfloor convector can be lined with TONZON radiator foil. The underfloor convector should only be heating air, not its own surfaces. If you do not want to see the radiator foil from the room, only insulate the areas in the underfloor convector that are invisible from within the room.
