Patent application title:

Forced radiant heat

Publication number:

US20060174864A1

Application number:

11/053,639

Abstract:

a) What is new in the art of my invention is to improve the way heat is being radiated out of older cast iron heating systems by using a thermostatically controlled fan system to extract and circulate the heat more efficiently throughout a home. You would not have to wait for the radiator's to become really hot (cast iron) before you can get the heat to really start moving. My invention would extract the heat as it is transferred from the hot water/steam from the cast iron radiator and move it using a bi directional vent to circulate heat throughout the room, thus using less fuel to reach operating temperature in the radiator, one also with an air filter to help clean the air of dust and small particles as the air is pulled into and out of the cast iron radiator. The unit is also reversible to move the hot air either up or down or side to side, depending on the consumer's preference.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

a) Pertains to modifications of hot water and steam generated heating systems using forced air.

b) There are no references to this invention or any outside information pertaining to this invention except for the parts involved in manufacturing.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

a) My invention idea is of a way to improve the efficiency of older hot water and steam generated heating systems by using a cylinder type fan that is molded and proportioned to fit inside recessed cast iron heater's and also external cast iron heaters in residential and commercial dwellings. The system uses I cylinder fan and 1 thermostat (digital). Also, low voltage (AC) Included is a directional vent in front of fan with air filtration filter that is washable and the fan can be reversed to reverse air flow.
