"Rifar" - radiators, which are happy to acquire as private traders - for installation in autonomous systems of country houses, and large construction companies engaged in the construction and equipment of high-rise buildings.
At the moment, the company "Rifar" produces onlyThe two main types of batteries are aluminum and bimetallic. The first variety is less costly, but also less durable. The design of bimetallic radiators eliminates the possibility of aluminum contact with chemically aggressive substances dissolved in the coolant.

Today on sale you can meet severalvarieties of batteries Rifar, about each of which there are well-deserved good reviews. "Rifar" - Base line radiators - one of the most popular modifications at the moment. Its main advantages are low cost, simplicity of design and reliability. Batteries are prefabricated, and therefore the buyer can choose any number of sections he needs. Several Base types are available, 200, 350 and 500 mm high.
Это самая дорогая, но при этом и самая надежная modification of the Rifar batteries. The main distinctive feature of the design of such radiators is the absence of prefabricated units. The battery is a single monolith, hence the name of the line. The channels through which the coolant passes are made of steel with enhanced corrosion resistance. The thickness of their walls is equal to the thickness of the walls of water pipes. All this ensures maximum battery reliability. The most popular among the population are radiators "Rifar Monolith" 500. Reviews about them are the best and most often they are acquired by the owners of large cottages and apartments.
Thus, customer reviews about thesebatteries let you judge them as reliable and productive. People who replaced their old equipment in apartments, in most cases, are very pleased with their purchase. Well speak about these radiators and owners of country houses. The main advantages of Rifar equipment include, first of all, low cost, easy installation and no risk of leakage.
Some of the disadvantages of this equipmentconsumers note only not too high quality of the outer coating. Therefore, when buying a battery should be carefully examined. Sometimes on their surface there are chips and scratches. Sick place "Monolith" is also not particularly reliable thread nozzles.
Despite some shortcomings about the equipmentThis brand generally has very good reviews. “Rifar” - radiators purchased from our country much more often than products of any other manufacturers. Anyone can afford to purchase such batteries. Leakage or any other problems when using them is a very rare phenomenon. At least, no one complains about such troubles.
Next, let's see how much it can do.installation of such equipment when assembling the heating system of a private house or replacing old batteries in a city apartment. The cost of one radiator depends mainly on the number of sections. In addition, the height of the battery also affects the price. One aluminum section with a 500 mm center distance costs about 620 rubles (for 2015). For the lower battery will have to pay a little less. Section 350 will cost about 600 rubles. Since the difference in price, as you can see, is not great, Rifar 500 radiators, the reviews of which are excellent, are somewhat more popular with consumers. Such models were developed specifically for large apartments and multi-storey country cottages with high ceilings, but also for medium-sized rooms they suit very well. For a small apartment, of course, it is better to purchase a model 350 or 200.
Bimetallic radiators "Rifar", reviews aboutwhich are mostly positive, are a bit more expensive than aluminum. The most popular modifications, as mentioned above, are “Monolith” and Base 500. Section “Basho” costs about 650-700 rubles. "Monolith" is sold with whole batteries, the price of which can vary from 5,000 rubles for a 6-section to 12 thousand rubles for a 12-section.
Below is an example of calculating the possible cost of bimetallic equipment "Rifar Base 500" for a house with an area of 100 m2 со стандартной высотой потолков в 2,5 м.We will be guided by the recommendations of the SNiP. According to this document, the necessary radiator power per square meter is 100 watts. This standard applies to ordinary premises, well-insulated and with a small number of windows (1-2 per room). Thus, for a home in 100 m2 need equipment whose total capacityshould be 10 000 watts, or 10 kW. One section of the Base 500 has about 200 watts of power. Therefore, to heat their house, they will need 50. Now we multiply 50 by 700 rubles. and we get the final cost of equipment - 35 000 rubles. That is, Rifar bimetallic radiators, reviews of which are good, are also not very expensive.
Какие же радиаторы Rifar выбрать – алюминиевые or bimetallic? The performance characteristics of those and other models differ very well. The power of both species is about the same. The aluminum section of 500 mm has a heat transfer coefficient of about 204 W, and exactly the same bimetallic - 198 W. In the strength of the construction, the difference is quite significant. Radiators "Rifar-Monolith", reviews of which allow to judge them as the most reliable, for example, can withstand the pressure (working) of the coolant to 100 atmospheres. Aluminum models are designed only for 20 atmospheres. But if we take into account the fact that the average working pressure in heating systems of high-rise buildings does not exceed 8-10 atm, and in private houses - 3 atm, both these varieties are not bad for a city apartment or for a country building. The advantage of bimetallic models is considered a longer service life. Aluminum batteries are a bit cheaper.
So whatever type you arechose, in any case, radiators of heating "Rifar", reviews of which are simply wonderful, will surely serve you faithfully for many years and will not cause any trouble during the operation.
