Often, the choice of heating for a private house puts a person to a dead end. Fitting advertising promises reliability, low cost and comfort at the same time. In most cases, the familiar and outdated heating systems are served under this sauce: gas, diesel, electric. Nothing new, except wrapper! But the future has already come and all this has a worthy alternative.
Technological inverter convectors Electrolux, manufactured by one of the leaders in this area, serve as the basis for creating inexpensive and that, the main, highly efficient heating system. The inverter system is characterized by a number of indisputable advantages compared to heating with electric boiler with water radiators.
Inverter heating system based on Electrolux convectors with Digital Inverter and WiFi Module
Minimal energy flow
The main thing is that distinguishes the inverter system of heating from electric boilers - this is an intellectual control that does not spend electricity invested. This has proven a number of experiments conducted by the Moscow Energy Institute.
The tests were conducted in a special insulated chamber of the institute, which reproduces the heat loss of the room. The chamber consistently compared the operation of two heating systems: an inverter heating system and an electric boiler system. Tests showed that in equal conditions to maintain a given temperature, the inverter system used electricity by 40% less than an electric boiler.

Distinctive trait
The inverter heating system consists of convectors connected by a single control. The convector is an electrical heater, the principle of operation of which is based on convection, that is, heating and mixing hot and cold air masses.
When heating with electricity, all electrical energy is transformed into thermal. Therefore, every extra degree is additional costs of electricity. Extra degrees occur when the operation of the instrument is managing the usual thermostat. Such a convector first overheats the air above the set value for several degrees, spending more energy, then turns off, giving a temperature time to decrease by several degrees. It follows a new heating cycle and so on. In such cycles, excess electricity is spent and electronics of the device is spent faster.
Control unit with Digital Inverter
This disadvantage is deprived of a convector with an inverter control unit and a highly sensitive temperature sensor. To maintain a given temperature, the heating element of the inverter convector does not need to be constantly turned on using the maximum power, and then turn off for cooling. The inverter control unit smoothly reduces the power of the heating element as the current temperature approaches the specified and then operates to accurate temperature maintenance with constant minimum electricity consumption.
If you compare the inverter heating with a boiler, then the system on the electric boiler and radiators is significantly inertial, it reacts slower to the change in the internal temperature and therefore consumes more electricity than is necessary to maintain a comfortable temperature.
No pipes!
The simplicity and low cost of mounting the inverter heating system consists in the complete absence of pipelines. The fact is that the element of the system is a convector, at the same time is both the generator and the source of heat. He does not need complex pipelines, both between the boiler and radiators. It is not required to stick the walls, to pay increased attention to the reliability of the compounds, use a plurality of shut-off and regulating reinforcement.

Tongue numbers
The most costly budget items when installing heating is the purchase of equipment and installation services. The minimum on which you can count on the installation of an electric boiler to a house of 120 kV. m. - Approximately 220 thousand rubles.
The cost of inverter heating to the house with the same area, and this is 7-9 inverter convectors, will be 70-80 thousand rubles. For this amount, minor costs of cable and sockets will be added.

Microclimate in the house
The heating system based on invertor convectors makes it easy to manage home microclimate. Often it does not make sense to maintain the same temperature in all rooms. It is wiser to divide the house into individual zones. For example, in the bathroom there may be 25 degrees, in the living room and a bedroom 22˚С, and in the economic premises it is enough 18 ° C. This effect can be obtained in several ways.
Through a special mobile application Hommyn and additionally installed in the WiFi module control unit. The application allows you to combine the instruments into the zones, set the temperature and the operation mode of the instrument at once for each zone. With the help of intelligent thermostats ELECTROLUX. The thermostat with a built-in temperature sensor controls convectors combined into a common zone. Thermostats allow the specified temperature as accurately as possible and respond quickly to its change; Increase energy efficiency and minimize energy consumption. You can control the heating system in this case through the application, and directly from the thermostat. Intelligent thermostats are steadily controlled by convectors even in the absence of an external Internet connection. Special console of centralized Hommyn climate control. This device manages the operation of all convectors and thermostats of the system, continuously calculates the energy consumption that is required to be stable maintaining a comfortable temperature. In addition, the central console increases energy efficiency and reduces electricity consumption. And also the console makes it possible to flexibly customize the work of heating on the calendar, provides a stable connection with system devices even in the absence of an Internet connection. Often there are situations when there is not enough electrical power allocated to the house. In this case, the remote control can limit the power consumed by heating and configure the cascading on / off convectors. This will not allow their simultaneous work and will not create a peak, exceeding the permissible, the load on the power grid. Commercial objects and houses of a large area optimally manage a specialized system based on the Hommyn Professional controller. The controller supports the power limit and distribution technology and can be integrated into the building automation system (MODBus protocol).

Benefit and security
Separately, it is worth highlighting high reliability, durability and unpretentiousness of the inverter system. Convectors have a high grade of dustless, which makes it possible to use equipment in wet rooms. Inverter convectors have passed all necessary tests and have a Fire Safety Certificate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
Analysis of the ELECTROLUX inverter system showed that its use, including installation, more profitable and cheaper than the operation of electric boilers. An important factor is flexibility - individual modules easily form a system that will be adapted for a specific living space; If necessary, the house can be divided into zones and manage them, including using the power limit technology.
