In the open position, the first and second plurality of fins are positionable over the pipe. In the closed position, the collar flanges of the first and second plurality of fins substantially surround the pipe. A fin clamp secures the first and second plurality of fins together in the closed position about the pipe.

A heating panel including a thermally conductive (e.g. metal) layer, a laminar heating element disposed over a framing-facing side of the thermally conductive layer, an insulation layer disposed over the laminar heating element, and a room-facing surface layer disposed over at least the room-facing side of the thermally conductive layer. A method for heating a room may include installing at least one heating panel on a ceiling of the room and providing power to the heating element to generate heat that radiates into the room. The panel may be part of a heating system including a controller, such as a thermostat, for regulating power to the heating panel. A plurality of heating panels or a plurality of heating zones in one or more of the panels may be independently controllable.

A radiator containment bag includes a bag section configured as a container and sized and shaped so that in use at least the lower end of a radiator fits within and is retained by the bag section. The bag section is formed at least partly from a waterproof material so that liquid in the bag section will be retained within the bag section. At least one containment strap is connected to the bag section and is configured to pass over and around the top of a radiator located in the bag section in use to hold the radiator in the bag section. A plurality of grab handles extends from the bag section and are configured to allow a user or users to grasp the handles to lift the

A heat emitting radiator for use in a fluid circuit containing coolant therein, and which can generate substantial amounts of heat to heat larger spaces, such as in a home or business, while utilizing minimal power to run, and which can be utilized in various implementations and configurations. The radiator can be selectively activated or de-activated by, for example, a cell phone or the like whereby the fluid circuit in the radiator can be monitored for time of use, temperature and cost of use.

The present invention relates to a multi-functional convection electric heater, comprising: a heating structure, which comprises a ceramic tubular device and a convection device, used to supply a heating source, and the convection device is connected with the ceramic tubular device, and is used to receive the heat supplied from the ceramic tubular device, and performs subsequent heating in a convection manner; a CMOS sensing device, which is used to capture a surrounding environment to obtain and output a corresponding surrounding environment image; and a homomorphic filtering device, which is connected with the CMOS sensing device, and is used to receive the surrounding environment image, and performs homomorphic filtering to obtain a corresponding homomorphic filtering image, wherein as the noise amplitude of the surrounding environment image gets larger, the intensity of performing the homomorphic filtering will be increased. The present invention enriches the electronic functions of the convection electric heater.

The invention is a system for heating, cooling or both heating and cooling a room. The system includes a channel layer with a first and a second outer surface and a plurality of adjoined waterproof channels disposed therebetween. Each channel is configured to allow a fluid to pass through. The channel layer is configured to be in thermal communication with a room. The system also includes spacing elements configured to space the channel layer a distance from a wall of the room.

A composite heating panel comprises a front panel having opposite front and rear surfaces; a heat dissipation panel in contact with the rear surface of the front panel; an insulated panel; and an elongate length of tubing for receiving a flow of fluid therethrough, the fluid being at above ambient temperature. The length of tubing is disposed between the insulated panel and the heat dissipation panel, and the length of tubing follows a tortuous flow path including at least one loop.

A radiant heater is disclosed. The radiant heater includes a heating layer, with a first elongated conductor configured to receive electricity and a second elongated conductor disposed parallel to the first conductor. A continuous sheet of resistive material adapted to produce heat in response to electrical current is disposed between the first and second elongated conductor. The heater also includes a transparent layer and a non-transparent functional layer that is disposed between the heating layer and the transparent layer. In a preferred aspect, the invention is in the form of a heating mirror.

A thermostatic actuator for a radiator valve includes a thermostat mechanism configured to passively open the valve when an environmental temperature is less than a set point and to close the valve when the temperature is greater than the set point. A set point adjustment mechanism draws power from a power supply to selectively drive unitary movement of the thermostat mechanism to adjust the set point. Multiple actuators are used in a zoned radiant heating system in which a controller is operatively connected to the set point adjustment mechanism of each actuator to selectively transmit a control signal to actuate the set point adjustment mechanism to drive unitary movement of the respective thermostat mechanism to adjust the respective set point.
