The noise level of a SpeedComfort is less than 20 dB(A). This is a noise level that is lower than rustling leaves.
The power of the SpeedComfort is so small that no contact noise is produced. However, each radiator makes its “own noise”. The same applies, to a lesser extent, to convectors. In exceptional cases this can be experienced as a mild issue.
The fans are extremely economical. Based on 1,000 running hours in a year, a SpeedComfort consumes less than €0.16 on electricity per year.
The adapter is loss-free, which means you do not consume power if the SpeedComfort is not working.
(for comparison: if you leave a “normal” adapter in the wall socket for a year, you can spend approximately €6.00 on electricity).
No.
The rule of thumb for the total number of SpeedComforts required is:
One SpeedComfort moves approximately 30 m3 of air per hour. The air in a room should preferably circulate once per hour.
Calculation example: a living room of 5 metres wide, 8 metres long and 3 metres high has a capacity of 120 m3. In this case, a Trio set with an Extension set, or two Duo sets are required.
Bear in mind you need an average length of 50 cm to put a SpeedComfort in place. Therefore, three are required for a radiator/convector of 1.60 m.
You can connect up to 20 SpeedComforts, using one adapter. Expansion sets can be found in the e-shop. These always include a 30 cm connection cable.
To bridge the distance between radiators/convectors, there are 0.60 m and 1.20 m extension cables in the e-shop.
In order to make optimum use of the possibilities offered by the SpeedComforts to save energy and increase comfort, it is important to select the right radiators/convectors in the home. These are usually found in the living areas.
Use the SpeedComfort as many times as required, depending on the length of the radiator/convector. They can be used with a 30 cm connection cable
SpeedComforts have an external thermostat switch. This is placed near the hot water supply with magnets. When the radiator or convector close to the thermostat switch gets to 33 degrees, the fans will turn on automatically. As a result, the radiator/convector moves heat more quickly from the radiator into the room. The room is brought to the desired temperature more quickly, and the heat is also better distributed.
The fans stop when the temperature of the radiator/convector falls below 25 degrees.
No.
Placing the SpeedComforts is very simple, thanks to the magnetic slides. With a small adjustment you can make them suitable for most radiators and convectors.
In radiators with two or three plates and a minimum of 7cm between the plates, you can place the SpeedComforts with the magnetic slides, like they are placed when they first come out of the packaging. The magnets ‘click’ against the iron of the radiator.
Inside the packaging is also an external thermo sensor switch, which you can also place with magnets. You can place this close to the side of the warm water supply.
The adapter fits on one side only, together with the thermo sensor. Choose to place this side of the SpeedComfort closest to the socket. If you have a duo or trio set, then use the included connection cable(s) to connect the SpeedComforts.
IMPORTANT: The side of the SpeedComfort that is entirely open is the bottom. Make sure you place the SpeedComfort with the right side above. Otherwise the hot airflow will be counteractive, instead of reinforced.
If there is less than 7cm space between the plates of the radiator, then pull the magnetic slides out of the SpeedComfort, turn them with the magnets above and slide them back. You can slide the magnets inside so that they fit between narrow radiator plates. Now you can hang the SpeedComfort below the radiator.
For a single plate radiator you can also turn the magnetic slides, only with all four magnets on the same side.
For placing the SpeedComfort in a convector you can find four small legs on the bottom of the SpeedComfort, which you can place in the holes on the end of the SpeedComfort.
You can place the SpeedComfort above or under the radiator. The video below show all possibilities for placing the SpeedComfort:
The SpeedComforts have been developed to be placed out of sight, at the bottom of a radiator. However, the SpeedComforts function just as well if they are placed on the top, between the panels of the radiator. Radiators often have a grid on the top, under which the SpeedComforts can be hidden from view. Keep in mind, however, that the higher temperature at the top will affect the lifespan of the fans.
SpeedComforts offer a solution for most radiators.
Old panel radiators sometimes have no convection fins between the panels and are not very suitable.
Old, cast iron radiators are not suitable for the SpeedComfort.
Yes, quite a lot in fact. The majority of the heating installations in the Netherlands are not propertly balanced. On average it uses much more energy than actually needed.
Installers usually automatically set your central heating temperature on standard factory settings: 80-85 degrees Celsius. Manually lowering the setpoint temperature to 60 degrees Celsius will result in optimum energy efficiency. This is similar to hr-boilers.
Most likely the setpoint of your water temperature is too high. If the temperature is 80 degrees Celsius or higher, the natural hot air stream will be high. That sounds right, but has several downsides:
1. If the thermostat switches off because the set temperature has been reached, the radiator is still very hot, causing the room temperature to rise another 2-3 degrees Celcius.
2. As a “solution” to this problem, the thermostat is usually set to 18 degrees Celsius. This means the room also has to cool down to an uncomfortably cold temperature below 18 degrees.
3. If the water from the radiator returns to the central heating boiler at 60 degrees Celsius, a lot of energy is wasted unnecessarily.
4. High air temperatures cause strong air streams in the room, causing more dust and fine particles to flow through the room.
Therefore, if the settings remain on a high water temperature, you wil still be wasting energy, even with SpeedComfort!
The primary goal of SpeedComfort is to lower the central heating temperature. Meaning:
1. Greater comfort in your home. The speedcomfort ventilator draws heat from your radiator, heating the room quicker and more evenly.
2. Save energy. SpeedComfort allows you to lower the water temperature of your central heating, easily saving 10% of your energy use
We chose to have the SpeedComfort put together by a Dutch company that only works with people who are disadvantaged in the labour market.
We choose to cooperate as much as possible with Dutch companies. If that does not work, we will search in the Euro area. We only use Asian suppliers as a last resort.
Almost all parts in the SpeedComfort come from the Netherlands or Europe. An exception is the loss-free power supply. If no load is applied, it will not consume electricity. These cannot be found in Europe, so we chose a product from China.
All the parts in the SpeedComfort are reusable. The life expectancy of an entire SpeedComfort is 40 years.
Yes. TNO carried out a test programme on a type 22 radiator. If you want to receive the (very extensive) report, please send a request to info@speedcomfort.com.
We opted for a hassle-free power supply that does not require the changing of batteries. In addition, a battery is anything but durable. Which is another reason not to choose them.
Although the SpeedComfort requires hardly any power, the time between replacing batteries would be very short. This is expensive, unsustainable and a hassle.
We also thought about using a solar panel in the windowsill. The disadvantage of this is that there is not much (sun) light during the heating season. Moreover, you still have to store power in a battery during the day because the SpeedComfort will work mainly in the evening. So this was also not an option.
1. The SpeedComfort will only work (automatically) when the radiator is warmer than 33 degrees at the thermostat switch. If you operate the adapter in the SpeedComfort without the thermostat switch, you can test the SpeedComfort. The fans will then start to run. If you want to test the thermostat switch, you can do so by holding a heated knife against the switch.
2. Are you sure the power outlet the SpeedComforts are connected to is working?
3. Are you sure the plug is plugged in properly and that the plug is fully plugged into the SpeedComfort?
4. Is there a good contact between the thermostat switch and the radiator panel?
5. Is the temperature of the radiator close to the thermostat switch (at least) 33 degrees? If not, bleeding and/or balancing can solve this problem.
For more information, please contact us.
A windowsill restricts the warm air flowing through a radiator or convector from rising. The SpeedComforts “force” that airflow along the windowsill.
In this situation, the SpeedComforts will definitely deliver added value.

Radiators are built up from one or more panels with convection panels between them (wave-shaped metal plates to create the largest possible surface area that transfers a large amount of heat into the air).
The SpeedComforts can be used on type 21 radiators without accessories.
For a type 33 radiator, place the SpeedComforts in the widest opening. There are two convection panels in this area, which means this is the largest heat-emitting surface.
The distance between radiator panels is not standard. The SpeedComfort is 70 mm wide. This width is important because the SpeedComforts must fit between the two radiator panels. The magnets slide in and out on one side.
The SpeedComfort has been developed to be out of sight, at the bottom of the radiator. When put in the top of the radiator, the effect is identical. Radiators often have a grid on the top, under which the SpeedComforts can be hidden from view. Keep in mind, however, that the higher temperature at the top will affect the lifespan of the fans.
Using the supplied 30 cm connection cable, you can connect multiple units in series to one power supply. Because the SpeedComforts use very little power, this can be as much as twenty in theory.
Old panel radiators sometimes have no convection fins between the panels and are not very suitable.
Older cast-iron radiators are also not suitable for SpeedComforts.
Brackets with magnets are available for radiators with a gap between the panels that is smaller than 70 mm. These enable the SpeedComforts to be hung securely under the radiator.
Feet that are clicked under the SpeedComfort are available for convectors.
All types are supplied with an external thermostat switch. This can be placed on or near the hot water supply using magnets. If there is no magnetic material available (often the case with convectors), the supplied Velcro can be used.
The SpeedComfort is supplied with an external thermostat switch. This is also put in place with magnets, near the hot water supply. The SpeedComfort will automatically switch on when the radiator is at 33 degrees close to the thermostat. Switching off is also automatic when the radiator cools down to 25 degrees.
The SpeedComfort has been developed for mounting out of sight, at the bottom of the radiator. But the SpeedComforts will function just as well if they are placed between the panels of the radiator at the top. Radiators often have a grid on the top, under which the SpeedComforts can be hidden from view. Keep in mind, however, that the higher temperature at the top will affect the lifespan of the fans.
