Catalog of glass screens for batteries
In general, glass screens for radiators and radiators are enclosing structures for household wall-mounted heating devices.
Air flows from heating devices occur due to sufficient gaps between the screen and the floor, as well as the presence of a gap between the window sill and the screen. In addition, there are a number of functions that a decorative glass screen performs:
— an unattractive old-type radiator is not visible to prying eyes. Thus, the advantages of the interior of the room will be emphasized; — dust and radiator will never meet. Since the radiator grill most often has a complex structure, it will be difficult to clean it properly. Installing glass screens will help avoid this problem, which will result in fewer harmful substances in the room that affect the human body; — a hot battery will never cause burns or injuries, which is very important where there are children; — the glass screen protects the heating system from untimely replacement of batteries and radiators.
Speaking about the advantages of glass screens for the battery and radiator, here is what is worth mentioning:
Radiator screens today are made from a range of materials. All of them already at the initial level have a respectable appearance, but also a number of disadvantages. Thus, corrosion and oxidation are typical for metal screens during operation. In addition, these require touch-up and tedious maintenance, and they also heat up like radiators, which is also undesirable. In turn, over time, ecological wooden screens dry out and crack, which means they change their geometry. During operation, plastic screens release products of their production into the air.
What can be said about battery screens made of glass is that they are made of natural environmentally friendly material, but do not have the above-mentioned disadvantages. The thickness of screens is usually 6-19 mm, and the shapes and sizes are quite different (the same applies to style). Using the UV printing method, individual images are applied to tempered glass. You can always order and buy special screens, for example, matte, purely transparent, with a sandblasted pattern, mirrored with laser engraving, painted in one of the colors according to the RAL table. Using point distance holders, glass screens are secured. They are made of stainless steel, and a decorative plug hides the visible part of the holder. In general, for your room, glass screens for the battery and radiator are a safe, modern and durable solution for creating an aesthetic element of interior decor.
