Reina Colona Column Radiators: The Best Heating Now!

Reina Colona Vertical

Upgrade Your Home with Reina Colona Column Radiators – The Ultimate Comfort

REINA’s Colona column radiators offer sleek, efficient home heating solutions ideal for spaces of all sizes. Their vertical design provides excellent heat circulation while taking up less wall space than traditional radiators. Read on to learn more about REINA’s features, performance, costs, and why they should be your top choice for low-impact home heating.

Cost Efficient and Energy Saving Options

Column radiators like the Colona provide more BTUs of heating power per square inch than panel radiators, meaning you can heat a room using a smaller unit. Their slimline design allows you to conserve space for furniture or decor.

Here are some key buying considerations:

  • High BTU output – Column radiators have a much higher BTU output than panel radiators of the same height and width. By using less radiator surface area to produce heat, they leave you more usable space in your home.
  • Energy efficiency – The efficient heat circulation of a column radiator requires less energy input to maintain comfortable temperatures. This further maximizes savings.
  • Competitive upfront pricing – Longer and taller column panels have a higher initial price tag, but will actually save you more in the long run through superior energy efficiency over years of use.
  • Reduced installation costs – Requiring less wall space than an equivalently powered panel radiator lowers complexity and thereby price of installation. Your heating engineer will appreciate the easier retrofitting!

Use our radiator BTU calculator below to determine what Colona model suits each room in your home or office:

| Room Dimensions | BTUs Needed | Recommended Colona Unit |
|-|-|-|
| 10′ x 12′ (120 sq ft) | 6000 | COLONA 500 (5000 BTU) |
| 15′ x 15′ (225 sq ft)| 9000 | COLONA 750 (7500 BTU) |
| 20′ x 20′ (400 sq ft)| 12000 | COLONA 1000 (10000 BTU) |

With precise room-by-room calculations, you can install Colona column radiators heating solution with optimal efficiency and comfort.

Energy Efficient and Eco-Friendly Radiator Design

In addition to high heat output and energy bill savings, REINA Colona radiators employ several clever designs for maximizing heating system efficiency:

  • Superior thermal insulation – Built-in insulation vastly minimizes conductive heat loss out the back and sides of the unit. So more warmth stays in your living spaces where it belongs! With less lost through external walls, your heating system doesn’t work as hard or consume extra energy compensating for lost heat.
  • Strategically spaced fins – The heat conducting fins evenly distributing warmth across the radiator’s surface have been uniquely engineered with a precise degree of spacing that optimizes heat convection and radiation within a room.
  • This efficient distribution pattern enables an exceptionally uniformed ambient temperature throughout the environment.
  • Durable epoxy finish – This elegantly smooth powder coated finish conducts and radiates heat more evenly across the entire face and body of the radiator for uniform heating of surrounding air. What’s more, it outlasts ordinary paint by resisting scratches, corrosion and collecting fewer dust layers over decades of use.

In additional to saving substantially on monthly energy bills through efficient operation, REINA Colona radiators have an impressively low carbon footprint relative to heat output.

They offer outstanding compatibility with renewable heating sources like solar thermal or ground source heat pumps to create one of the lowest emissions home heating systems available today.

Moreover, their durable epoxy coated steel bodies will continue delivering flawless performance for 20-30 years or longer – avoiding the high replacement and manufacturing emissions seen with short-lived, low quality heating emitters.

Powerful and Consistent Convection Heating

As a convection-based heat emitter, column radiators rely heavily on internal air circulation currents to transfer warmth across rooms. Hot air gently rises from the tall, vertically finned body, circulating heat-carrying air throughout an environment.

The elongated design and heat conductive fins of the Colona range optimize this natural airflow pattern to create one of the most efficient and comfortable radiant heating effects achievable for residential and commercial spaces alike.

Benefits of REINA Colona’s leading-edge convective heating include:

  • Uniform ambient warmth – Rooms develop an enveloping warmth as hot air softly permeates every corner without cold or hot spots. No more chilly corners or stuffy ceiling zones!
  • Minimized heat stratification
  • The continuous circulation of rising hot air minimizes temperature differences between floor and ceiling levels for more uniform heating zone to zone.
  • Ideal for open concept architecture – The powerful convection currents can readily transfer warmth horizontally to fill even larger, sweeping great room designs that many traditional bulky radiators struggle to heat effectively.

This makes Colona column radiators exceptionally versatile – equally suited to heating snug bedrooms as vast great room designs. Further complementing the Colona’s strengths, strategically pairing them with REINA’s panel radiators in other areas of your home achieves whole home heating optimized for comfort, visual elegance and efficiency.

Additional Convenient Features

  • Integrated air vents – Top mounted manual or thermostatically controlled air vents enable custom fine-tuning of heat output without compromising aesthetic design.
  • Range of sizes – From more compact 400 mm units for smaller spaces to tall 2 meter panels for heating expansive high-ceiling rooms. Finally, a heating solution for even hard-to-fit architectural dimensions!
  • Designer colour finishes – Available in popular hues like matte white and anthracite grey as well as luxurious polished chrome, golden sand or contemporary graphite metallic. Effortlessly match any decorative style.
  • Flexible installation options – Choose floor-mounting for a sleek tower aesthetic or wall models. Pair with smart thermostatic valves for room-by-room comfort and scheduling control.

FAQs

What maintenance do Colona radiators require?

Thanks to the durable epoxy coating, Reina Colona radiators require very little maintenance – just give them an occasional wipe down with a soft dry cloth to maintain their refined looks. Periodically checking your heating system water pressure stays between 1-2 bar is also advised.

How do I calculate the BTUs needed to heat a room?

Use our convenient radiator BTU calculator above for precise Colona model recommendations based on room dimensions. As a general guideline, you need roughly 10 BTUs for every square foot of space if good insulation, up to 20 BTUs per square foot for very poorly insulated spaces.

What types of valves can I control Colona radiators with?

Choose user-friendly thermostatic valves like REINA’s RA-D radiator valves to enable custom comfort and temperature scheduling control in each heated room in your home or office.

Are there any heating efficiency rebates or renewable energy incentives available?

Yes, switching to greener heating solutions like REINA’s Colona column radiators qualifies most UK households for sustainability grants, tax credits and upgraded system discounts through organizations like the UK Renewable Heat Incentive. Check out our guide on heating grants and rebates to learn more about savings opportunities.

The Takeaway

REINA’s Colona stylish, eco-friendly column radiators offer supremely efficient vertical heating performance without the obsolete eyesore aesthetics of old-fashioned column heat emitters. Their convection-optimized slimline design reliably fills any space floor-to-ceiling with deliciously uniform warmth while using far less energy than panel radiators.

What’s more, their incredibly durable epoxy coating reliably withstands corrosion and wear – keeping maintenance costs at bay for decades on end.
