Abstract: The present disclosure provides, among other things, a radiator system, its components, as well as methods of mounting and/or installing thereof. Provided components include radiating fins arranged around a water pipe to form a core assembly. The radiating fins may include a collar and/or reflare and are spaced in the core assembly to permit airflow through the system. The core assembly may be mounted by support elements on hangers from a back plate which is wall mountable. The support elements may create space for airflow between the core assembly and a front casing and/or the back panel. Provided systems, components and methods are useful in commercial and residential baseboard radiators.

Abstract: Sound-attenuating housing (10) for a heat pump (34) comprises a base chassis (11), a first sub-chassis (17) and a second sub-chassis (19). The base chassis (11) is surrounded by upstanding walls (12-15) and has a top (16) adapted to engage with the upstanding walls (12-15), thereby to form an enclosure for the heat pump (34). The first sub-chassis (17) is provided within the enclosure, and is mounted on the base chassis (11) via-anti-vibration mounts (18). The second subchassis (19) is provided within the enclosure, and is mounted on the first sub-chassis (17) via anti-vibration mounts (21). The second sub-chassis (19) forms a mounting surface for a heat pump compressor (25), whilst the first sub-chassis (17) forms a mounting surface for other components of the heat pump (34).

Abstract: A radiator fin (10) has front (11) and rear (12) faces, and is defined by upper (15) and lower (16) edges and opposed side edges (17, 18). The fin (10) has first and second apertures (13, 14), each passing through the front (11) and rear (12) faces and adapted to receive and contact a conductive element (24, 25) for the transfer of heat to the fin (10). The centre of the first aperture (13) is offset relative to the centre of the second aperture (14), such that said first (13) and second aperture (14) centres are not vertically aligned when the fin (10) is installed. The fin (10) is adapted for mounting adjacent a plurality of like fins (10) to form a heat exchange coil (30) for use in a radiator (40).

Abstract: Flame-effect heating apparatus comprises a housing with walls defining an air duct extending therethrough. Simulated fuel is supported by the housing, externally of the duct, and at least one flame-effect generator is disposed in the duct. A light source is provided in the housing to illuminate both the simulated fuel and the flame-effect generator. A mirror is supported by the housing so that light reflected by the flame-effect generator is incident thereon. A wall of the housing which defines the air duct, is formed as a viewing screen on which light reflected by the mirror falls, the viewing screen being positioned higher than the simulated fuel. An electric fan causes air to flow through the air duct, so causing operation of the flame-effect generator, and a heat exchanger disposed in the duct warms air passing thereover.
