Radiator grille as an element of decor

Heating batteries are often used to heat a room in a house . Their appearance may differ, depending on the manufacturer, brand, capacity and other indicators. Modern radiators have an ergonomic design, so they do not require a radiator grille. But in houses of old buildings, where there are large batteries consisting of several cells, this is very noticeable. To give the room a comfortable appearance, they are closed with various fences. The radiator grille is most suitable for this.

Material for it can serve different types of wood or plastic. The appearance of such a lattice can be decorated very effectively. It also helps to protect the space in the room for small children and animals, to avoid burns and possible jams.

An obligatory condition is the presence of holes in the canvas. They are necessary for penetration of hot air. Since the batteries are most often located under the window, the grille for the radiator is heated at the level of the window sill, thus continuing its area. This allows you to use the opening of the window more rationally.

But if you do not plan to change windows, then you can use another option. The radiator grille, made of metal rods on which wooden or plastic plates are fixed, is installed directly on the battery itself. She is not afraid of the temperature to which the battery is heated. The grill, made of rattan fabric, helps not only to protect the window, but also gives the room an oriental flavor. Especially if the floor is covered with mats or there is furniture from the same material. The radiator grill itself becomes a part of this interior.

Modern flat radiators can be left unchanged, in the form in which you purchased them. Sometimes, so that the heating battery does not stand out very much on the wall, it is painted with paint under the color of the wallpaper. This has its advantages. The paint protects the metal from rust. The painted radiator grille can become even more attractive, since it will completely close the battery.

Forged model, ordered to the master and made according to your drawing, will emphasize your personality, giving solidity to the whole interior. Sometimes, when it is made of expensive material with various elements of inlay, the decorative grille becomes a work of art. And how unusually and individually this element of decor looks, if marble is taken as the basis! The stone itself will give the originality of the whole structure itself.

If you decide that it's time to completely replace heating, getting rid of old cast-iron batteries, modern flat radiators or other heating devices, then you should pay attention to the regulators. It is these small devices that will allow you to regulate the temperature in the apartment. And although today you can choose the option of heating the house without batteries, you do not want to completely leave these heating devices. And if there are radiators, then there is a place for a decorative grille on them.
