How Radiators and Heat Emitters Impact Heat Pump Efficiency

In this episode, we shine a spotlight on heat emitters – radiators and underfloor heating – and their role in low-temperature heating systems powered by heat pumps. Our expert panel, featuring Sune Nightingale (Firepower), Rob Nezard (UK Radiators) and Rob Stevens (heat pump expert), discusses: – Why quality radiators are key to efficiency and comfort. – The role of pipe sizing and its impact on system performance. – K2 vs. K3 radiators – what’s the difference?
