Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2548624A] Combined boiler radiator apparatus 11 with flow 6 and return 19 fluid connections for connecting to and retro-fitting an existing central heating radiator 1, a pump 16 for circulating liquid between the connections and a heater 8 for heating the circulating liquid. The apparatus is mountable on a central heating radiator so that it is substantially supported thereon. The heater unit may have first 3 and second 9 supports, the second support having a portion acting as a heat shield against heat generated by the heater. The heater may contain a heating element proving around 600W of power. The apparatus may have a temperature regulator 10 for controlling the temperature of the circulating liquid which may be connected to a room temperature sensor. There may also be a communication unit 13 which could be wireless for sending or receiving data from a remote system or device. The combined boiler radiator device may have a cover visually similar to a convention domestic central heating radiator 14. There may also be a tamper evident seal for fastening the cover or radiator to the device.
