heating coils

Electric warmth elements

Heating coils are coiled tubes or wires that generate heat, typically through electrical resistance or by carrying hot fluid.

They appear in appliances like toasters, space heaters, and water heaters, as well as in HVAC systems where hot water or steam passes through coiled pipes to warm air: The heating coils in the old radiator need replacing.
