Are Black Radiators Efficient Heaters?
If you’ve been online to research if black radiators are more efficient, you’ve probably seen quite a few results that say they are. While yes, black radiators can be more efficient as they can absorb and emit thermal radiation more effectively, it’s quite honestly such a small difference that you’ll likely not notice it. All high quality radiators will have different BTU’s depending on their design, size and material. So if you’re looking for efficiency, don’t worry too much about the colour and look at the size or metal used instead.
