Attachment to existing radiators
KELIT COPTIMIZER - Innovate your radiator
With rising energy costs and a growing awareness of sustainability, efficient heating is a priority for many building owners and households. The Coptimizer, a new type of radiator booster, increases the heating output of conventional radiators and thus helps to reduce the flow temperature of existing systems. This avoids costly radiator replacement with all the inconvenience (installation, chiselling, painting etc.) in occupied households.
The Coptimizer is an attachment for existing radiators and consists of an energy unit in the upper area of the radiator and a fan unit in the lower area. The two components can be installed easily "plug and play", and without requiring any structural alteration work. Unlike comparable systems, no separate power connection is required for the device. The Coptimizer is energy self-sufficient. Electrical voltage is generated by temperature differences between the hot side (radiator) and the cold side (heat sink) due to the conversion of heat into electrical energy (Seebeck effect), thereby driving the fans, entirely without any additional power supply.
Saving energy made easy - with smart heating technology
To heat rooms, radiators utilise the natural principle of convection, the flow transport of air. Cold air from the lower part of the room is heated by the radiator, rises and is distributed throughout the room. Once the air has released the heat into the room, it sinks back down to be heated again and the process starts all over again. The COPTIMIZER amplifies this effect on the radiator and helps to distribute the heat more efficiently throughout the room. This improves the efficiency of the radiators and helps to save energy and consequently reduce heating costs. A pleasant side effect: the more even distribution of heat creates a more pleasant room climate.
