The required radiator output is determined by a number of parameters, including:<\/p>\n
- The size of your sitting room.
\n- The age of your house (sitting room).
\n- Whether the house (sitting room) has been insulated since it was built (ceiling, walls, floor).
\n- Whether new energy-saving windows have been fitted.<\/p>\n
As a rule of thumb usually somewhere between 30 and 100 W\/m2 is required - see the examples below.<\/p>\n
Please note that the data used in the examples is for guidance purposes only!<\/p>\n
For more exact calculations, please contact a consultant or a heating engineer.<\/p>\n

Example 1:<\/strong> Example 2:<\/strong> Example 3:<\/strong>
\nHouses from the 1960s which have not been insulated since being built:
\nRequired heat approx. 100 W\/m2 floor.<\/p>\n
\nHouses from the 1970s or 1980s which have been insulated since being built:
\nRequired heat 50-60 W\/m2 floor.<\/p>\n
\nNew houses:
\nRequired heat 25-30 W\/m2 floor.
