The manner in which heat transfers to your house is the first key to understanding how to save money on air conditioning bills. Heat transfers in three ways — conduction, convection and radiation.

This is vertical transport of heat and moisture. Think about a boiling pot of water. Radiation: This is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation.

Radiation is the transfer of heat energy from a region of high temperature to a region of low temperature by infrared radiation. Unlike conduction and convection, radiation takes place without the ...

However, despite their name, radiators actually transfer most of their heat to a room by convection not radiation. So, radiators are the wrong colour, and have the wrong name.
