Oil Filled Electric Radiators

Choosing the correct size electric radiator depends on the room size and how much heat the room loses. Factors such as ceiling height, insulation, glazing, and the number of external walls all affect the wattage required. To make things simple, we recommend using our Electric Radiator Size Calculator, which calculates the ideal output based on your room details. It’s also important to check that the radiator dimensions fit the available wall space.

Yes. Our Electric radiator are 100% efficient at the point of use, meaning all the electricity they consume is converted directly into heat. When paired with accurate thermostats, timers, and room-by-room control, they can be a very efficient heating solution for modern homes. Because each radiator works independently, you only heat the rooms you use — helping to reduce wasted energy.

Electric radiator only use electricity when they are actively heating. How much they consume depends on:

• The radiator wattage
• How long it runs each day
• Your electricity tariff
• How well the room is insulated

With correct sizing and sensible programming, electric radiators can be economical to run, especially when compared to inefficient or outdated heating systems.

Yes — electric radiator is an excellent replacement for storage heater. They offer instant heat, precise temperature control, and flexible scheduling, which traditional storage heaters lack. Unlike storage heaters, electric radiators do not rely on storing heat overnight. Instead, they produce heat only when you need it. In most cases, you will also need to switch from an Economy 7 tariff to a standard electricity tariff.

Yes. Electric radiator is designed for simple installation. Wall brackets are supplied as standard, and some models also offer optional castors for freestanding use. They run on a standard 13-amp supply, meaning they can be plugged into a socket or hardwired into a fused spur. If hardwiring is required, a qualified electrician should carry out the work.

The running cost of electric radiators will depend on how much you pay for your electricity, how well insulated your house is, how high you set the thermostat and how many hours per day you need heating. What you can be certain of is that all electric radiators will cost the same to run regardless of the manufacturer, or materials used in the construction.

Electric radiator are built with multiple safety features, including:

• Overheat protection
• Thermal cut-off systems
• Accurate digital thermostats
• Child safety controls on selected models

When installed correctly and used as intended, electric radiator is a safe and reliable heating option for homes and commercial spaces.

Electric radiator produce no emissions at the point of use, making them a cleaner alternative to gas-based heating.

Their precise control also helps reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
