This article deals with the problem of choosing the thickness of the heat-refl ecting screen behind the heating radiator, in which the conditions for the formation of condensate on the wall are not achieved. Based on the analysis of the results obtained, the maximum thickness of the screen is established, using the example of penofol, at the calculated temperature diff erence in the conditions of a cold fi ve-day period, and the heat losses and the economic eff ect of this energy-saving measure

... are determined already during the heating period. Calculations were carried out for a wall made of reinforced concrete, covered with plaster on the outside. This technique can be used for other cases of enclosing structures and various materials of the heat-refl ecting screen.
