You can paint the radiator tanks any color you want to but don't paint the radiator core itself. Painting the core will negatively affect the radiators ability to transfer heat away from the engine coolant.


Why should radiators be black?

radiators should be black because black not only absorbs heat, it also gives out a lot of heat as well. If you think this is wrong or I have no proof please see the question how do you make an experiment up of "looking at heat absorbsion and reflection"


Does putting foil behind radiators heat the room better if they are covered?

Yes, placing foil behind radiators can help reflect heat into the room rather than letting it absorb into the wall. This can improve the overall efficiency of the radiator and help heat the room more effectively. Just make sure to leave some space between the foil and the radiator to allow proper airflow.


Which type of Bunsen burner is better for heating?

A Tirrill burner is typically better for heating compared to a Meeker burner. Tirrill burners allow for more precise control of the flame intensity, making them more suitable for heating applications that require specific temperature adjustments.


Can you warm a kitchen by leaving the oven door open?

Leaving the oven door open to warm a kitchen is not a safe or efficient method. It can lead to heat loss, wasted energy, and potential safety hazards. It is better to use a proper heating source like a heater or a central heating system to warm a kitchen.

Is it better to have central heating on continuously rather than on and off at morning and night?

It's better to set it at a low temperature if you're not at home and at night. Then, it doesn't have to work so hard to heat the house.


Why are radiators white?

The reason that radiators are white is unknown because black absorbs and emits heat a whole lot better than white does, mostly because all that the colour white does is reflect infrared heat rays!If you wish to object to my theory go aheadInfrared? Manufacturers choice for color coding engine. White is usually aluminum. Less corrosive less weight.
