Heat vs RAL 330-1

HeatJotunvsRAL 330-1RAL EffectΔE 5.0Noticeable difference

Where Heat belongs to Jotun's range, RAL 330-1 is a RAL Effect color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. RAL 330-1 (LRV 19) reflects noticeably more light than Heat (LRV 16), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Heat vs RAL 330-1 in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Heat and RAL 330-1 are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — RAL 330-1 gives the walls a little more lift.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
