Recently, a friend asked me what type of radiator I would like to buy? So I recommended an aluminum profile radiator to him. Why do I recommend this type of aluminum profile radiator? Mainly due to the following reasons and methods:

Firstly, steel radiators cannot be used in open pressure free boilers or steam heating systems; And aluminum profile radiators cannot be used by aluminum radiator manufacturers in heating systems or steam heating systems with high water pH values; Copper tube aluminum fin (copper aluminum composite) radiators have no special requirements for water quality, but when using the device, attention should be paid to preventing excessive torque on the interface between the header copper pipe and the wing column copper pipe. Secondly, record the size of the original radiator and try to select the size of the radiator based on its heat dissipation capacity.

New heating radiators are divided into steel radiators, aluminum radiators, copper radiators, copper aluminum composite radiators, steel aluminum composite radiators, stainless steel radiators, etc. according to different information; According to the appearance characteristics of the product, it can be divided into column type radiators (two column, three column, four column), row tube type radiators (single or double row tubes), wing type radiators (double sided fins, single sided fins), and fin type radiators (circular fins, square fins). Aluminum radiators are designed according to heat dissipation methods, including radiation radiators and convection radiators. The commonly used new heating radiators are steel column radiators, steel pipe radiators, aluminum alloy column wing radiators, and copper aluminum composite column wing radiators.

If the residential area you live in has household heating, aluminum radiators in the market can be used at all. If it is centralized heating, the selection should be based on the water quality of the community. For example, if the water quality contains high alkali content, aluminum shaped radiators should not be used, and steel radiators should be used instead. However, if the oxygen content in the water is high, it is not advisable to choose steel radiators. Steel radiators with anti-corrosion treatment on the inner layer or aluminum profiles should be used instead. Under normal circumstances, the demand for water quality is not strict for copper aluminum composite and new cast iron. Additionally, the aluminum radiator materials used in each room should be the same or nearby to prevent corrosion due to electrochemical reactions between different raw materials.

In fact, it is important to choose a radiator based on the specific usage environment and conditions. However, in most cases, aluminum profile radiators can be used for selection and use.
