Each PDF holds the dimensioned cross-section, weight, water content and full heat-output table for that profile. ThermaSkirt H₂O comes in two wet profiles, and ThermaSkirt-e in two matching electric profiles.

Heat output

How much heat does each profile give out?

Output is published per linear metre of skirting in a 20 °C room. The hotter the water, the more heat per metre, which is why a gas boiler squeezes more from the same length than a heat pump. The figures below are calculated to the EN 442-1 standard, the same method used to rate radiators.

Heat source	Standard BM2	High output BM3
Gas / oil boiler75/65 °C flow/return	136 W/m	186 W/m
Heat pump (higher flow)55/45 °C flow/return	73 W/m	102 W/m
Heat pump (low flow)45/40 °C flow/return	51 W/m	73 W/m

Output per linear metre in a 20 °C room, per EN 442-1 (BSRIA test 51397-1).

Output per metre (W/m) against mean water temperature, 20 °C room.

Radiator equivalence

How much skirting replaces a radiator?

A typical 1200 × 600 double panel radiator puts out around 630 W. ThermaSkirt spreads that same heat around the perimeter of the room instead of stacking it on one wall.

At heat-pump flow temperatures that single radiator is equivalent to roughly 14 m of standard skirting or 10 m of the high-output profile, which is usually less than the wall run most rooms already have. It is also why ThermaSkirt avoids the oversized radiators a heat pump would otherwise need.

~14 m

Standard (BM2)

= one 1200×600 radiator

~10 m

High output (BM3)

= one 1200×600 radiator
