Bathroom heating and heat pump

2016-12-16 21:19:14

Good evening,

We have the opportunity to get 2 towel radiators from Schulte for little money, but we are unsure if they will work with our planned heat pump. Both models run with hot water. Have thermostat connection.

1.77m long and 77cm long. No. 1 for the main bathroom, No. 2 for the guest bathroom.

Should we go for it or are they useless?

Do they have a heating cartridge? Then yes, if the system is coordinated with the heating engineer.

I have often read that towel radiators connected to the heat pump are "useless" because they do not really get warm due to the low flow temperature. We will also get a heat pump (air-to-water heat pump) and a towel radiator, but ours will not be connected to the heat pump; it will run purely electrically so that it really gets warm. I want to use the towel radiator especially to have the option to heat the bathroom more in transitional periods and, of course, to warm towels.

If it is not connected to the heating circuit, then it works fine. With underfloor heating, the temperature is generally quite low. It does not necessarily have to do with the heat pump.

That's the only way to make sense of it...

During the transition period, does the living room then have 19 °C and the bathroom is electrically heated to 22 °C? How does that work exactly?
