Etymology
The word 'radiator' originated from the Latin word 'radiare' which means 'to emit rays'. The concept of radiators for heating can be traced back to ancient Rome, where they used a system called 'hypocaust' to heat buildings. Over the centuries, radiators have evolved into the modern heating devices we use today.
