A Revolutionary Energy Saving DIY Radiator Reflector that reflects at least 95% of the heat energy emitted from the rear of a radiator

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 30, 2010 -- Radflek Radiator reflector is made from Eco-Brite®, a laminated aluminium foil with a unique long lasting coating that prevents oxidation of the foil with minimal effect on its high reflectivity.

Radflek's unique easy installation method makes fitting to wall mounted radiators extremely easy, with installation of the reflector taking as little as 5 minutes per radiator and with easy removal the radflek insulation can be temporary removed for dusting to maintain optimum reflectivity

Radflek reflects back into the room 95% of the heat energy radiated from the rear of your radiator
This reduces your heating bill - the reflected energy you are paying for is used to heat the room and not the wall
Less energy used means a smaller carbon footprint
Radflek radiator reflectors comes in packs sizes of 3, 5 and 10 sheets (each sheet is 1200mm by 600mm) - one sheet will be enough to fit two average sized radiators
A 10 pack of Radflek can save you £40 per year – Radflek radiator insulation can pay for itself within a year
Radflek is easy to install – any man, or woman, really can do it and it takes only minutes

Once installed, nobody will know Radflek is there

Why Use Radflek Radiator Insulation

Radiators radiate heat in all directions. If positioned against a wall energy is wasted warming up the wall in addition to the room. Typically as much as 40% of the heat released by a radiator will be directed towards the wall. Radflek Insulation reflector placed between the radiator and the wall prevents heat being wasted in heating the wall by reflecting 95% of it back into the room. This means less energy is needed to heat the room to the required temperature.

Other radiator reflectors are permanently mounted on the wall behind the radiator and so are difficult to dust (this is essential to maintain high reflectivity) and this type of mounting also allows conductive heat transfer through the reflector into the wall. Radflek is hung between the radiator and the wall without touching either (eliminating conductive heat transfer). The way it is hung means that heat radiated from the rear of a radiator is almost entirely reflected back into the room, without being wasted in heating up the wall.

Installing Radflek radiator reflector could not be simpler, - any man can do it. It only takes five minutes to fit and the benefits are immediate. Once fitted, no major maintenance is required, just the odd dusting to retain optimum reflectivity. Radflek will last for years, continuing to save you money on your energy bills and reducing CO² emissions

Radflek is designed for wall mounted radiators. The standard pack contains all that is needed to hang Radflek behind the radiator.

Tests carried out by the British Board of Agrément (BBA) show that Radflek reduces heat transfer through walls by 45%. The Building Research Establishment (BRE), the leading research institution in the field of building technology, has also reported that Radflek is 23% more efficient at saving energy and reducing CO² emissions than the leading competitor and that a sheet of Radflek will save 8.9 kg CO² per annum compared to 7.2 kg CO² per annum equivalent saving by the leading competitor¹.


The BBA has also certified that Eco-Brite®, (Radflek’s constituent material has a life of at least 60 years.

Eco-Brite® was developed specifically to increase the efficiency of ceiling, wall and floor insulation used in sustainable home designs and other small buildings.

In combination with fibre insulation, Eco-Brite® can provide the most cost-efficient insulating method available that meets the requirements of current Building Regulations
