The article presents the results of experimental studies on a flat plate radiator. The influence of curtains made of materials of different structures and permeabilities on the temperature fields in the space around the radiator and the heating power of the radiator was checked. Temperature studies concern the gap between the front panel of the radiator and the hung material. The heating power was calculated for the individual variants tested (with or without a cover). The highest heating power was shown to be achieved by the radiator without a cover, which was 319.8 W. The radiator with guipure cover had 319.3 W, while the lowest power was achieved by the radiator with cotton curtain, which was 277.0 W. Based on the experiment conducted, screening factors were given. They were established in relation to the curtains tested and their effect on the heat power of the radiator.
