From an aesthetic point of view, aluminium radiators offer surface texture and pattern, numerous colours and a choice of finishes which result in a feature radiator as important to the overall interior design as the furniture around it. In addition, when you choose an aluminium radiator you will reap the rewards of a recyclable ‘green’ metal. Aluminium is three times lighter than steel and is therefore easier to install by a single person, saving on labour costs, plus is 100% recyclable and can be manufactured from waste aluminium from its own factory, fulfilling Vasco’s philosophy perfectly: unifying design, comfort and ecology.
The Beams aluminium radiator is part of a new generation of sustainable radiators suitable for low temperature regimes; it is warmth at its most beautiful and most energy efficient. Vasco Beams is not only a pleasure to look at, it also excels at energy efficiency. For example, Beams only contains 2 litres of water instead of the usual 10 litres, so it gets to the required temperature extremely quickly. The heat is given off three to four times faster compared to traditional radiators and there is no heat loss through the wall, thanks to the optimal positioning of the convection fins at the back. In addition, the water sits in the core, so it is completely safe to touch. The system was developed in co-operation with the University of Stuttgart in Germany and provides around a 15% saving in energy.
Beams is available in the Vasco colour palette which has been compiled with influences from nature, architecture, design and fashion trends.
