Bimetallic radiators of heating global style and their
The bimetallic radiators of heating Global, received the name "Style" are considered one of the best in a line of heating devices. In this article we will take a closer look at them, consider their structure and features.

General information
In the early nineties when installing heating systems in our country began to massively use aluminum radiators. They had good heat dissipation and at the same time looked much more attractive than traditional cast iron batteries. However, soon there were rumors that these devices are breaking and causing leaks.
This deficiency did occur and was due to two reasons:
- Stores often sold radiators from China that were not certified for central heating systems.
- The launch of heating systems was carried out completely differently as prescribed by the instructions. As a result, a strong hydraulic shock destroyed the device.
Manufacturers of radiators quickly responded to this situation and bimetallic devices appeared on the market. Unlike conventional aluminum radiators, they are equipped with steel cores, which over the entire outside area are in contact with aluminum fins. As a result, such products, including Global Style, have good strength and reliability.
It should be noted that bimetallic batteries are of two types:
- With metal cores in all sections;
- With metal cores in vertical channels inside.
In the second case, the water is in contact with aluminum collectors. As a result, in the presence of copper sections of pipelines in neighboring apartments, galvanic destruction of the metal may occur. Therefore, it is more expedient to purchase devices of the first type, despite the fact that their price is higher, and that is exactly what Global Style is.

About company
GLOBAL DI FARDELLI OTTORINO and C, the manufacturer of the bimetallic radiators under consideration, was founded in the 71st year of the last century. Initially, it focused on the production of aluminum radiators, but gradually the production expanded and the product range was replenished with new types of radiator products for heating.
In particular, in the company's catalogs appeared:
- Aluminum radiators made by welding and extrusion, not cast;
- Accessories for the installation of radiators;
- Heated towel rails;
- Bimetallic radiators.
Currently, about 40 percent of all the company's products are manufactured for the domestic market of Italy, while the rest of it is exported. It should be noted that the company entered the CIS market in 1994 and during this time managed to gain a certain popularity among professional builders and ordinary buyers.
The focus of the company's sales quickly changed from aluminum to bimetallic, as buyers are most interested in reliable and at the same time inexpensive heating appliances.

Features of bimetallic batteries
Speaking about the features of the Global Style radiators, the following points can be highlighted:
- Mechanical strength - products are able to withstand high pressure coolant (35 kgf / cm2) and strong water hammer. Therefore, they are excellent for use in central heating systems.
- Most products of this type are able to withstand operating temperatures up to 110 degrees Celsius..
- The standard heat output of the sections with the center distance of liners in 50 centimeters is 170 watts.
- Thanks to the system of sectional assembly, carried out with the help of nipples, at the place of installation of bimetallic radiator heating devices you can increase the number of sections with your own hands or reduce them.
Note! Radiators differ in overall dimensions - the distance between the axles and the depth of the construction. In general, the larger the dimensions of the product, the higher its heat transfer.

Types of radiators Global Style
Today the company offers the buyer two lines of bimetallic radiators, and each of them includes two types of products. Below we take a closer look at them.

Style
This line includes the models - Style 500 and 350. Between themselves, the products differ only in the center distance of the supply lines and overall dimensions. The remaining characteristics of them are identical:
Design | The metal core is located throughout the section size. |
Operating temperature of the coolant (maximum value) | It is 110 degrees Celsius. Given that the current SNiP limit the temperature to 95 degrees, the stock remains sufficient. |
Working pressure (maximum value) | Makes 35 atmospheres (one of the best indicators among similar devices). |
Heat transfer at a delta temperature of 70 degrees Celsius. | 168 and 125 watts, depending on the model. |

Style plus
This line includes models - Style Plus 500 and 350. If you study the characteristics of these models, it turns out that they are absolutely identical to the previous ones. The only difference is in heat dissipation, which is 140 and 185 watts.
Note! All radiators of this company are covered by a 10-year warranty.
Conclusion
Global Style radiators are sturdy products from a reputable manufacturer. Among a number of alternatives, they are distinguished by maximum working pressure, which can save your apartment from flooding in the event of a hydraulic shock in the system.
At the same time, the cost of this product, though not the lowest, is far from "transcendental." From the video in this article, you can pick up some additional information on this topic.
