In very cold countries it is difficult to live without heating the rooms. In olden days fire was lit inside the house to keep the people warm. Later method of heating the rooms changed. Every method had its own disadvantages until PEX a cross linked polymer was discovered. The pipes are made of PEX material which retains the heat for a long time.  Pipe lines are laid under the floor and heated water is circulated to heat up the floor and in turn the room.

Heat could not be spread to wider areas so a very novel method was devised. The new method used aluminum plates to transfer heat. Aluminum is known to retain heat so it has been employed as a medium for heat transfer. These plates have an omega like structure in the middle through which the pipes are placed. Heated water is circulated through these pipes. The aluminum plates gather heat which is radiated to heat up the room.
