I find 14°C inside is ok if you wear a couple of layers I just wanted it warm enough to be able to use my bare hands on devices, I turned the thermostat right down on my Delongi oil heater and I'm still warm I keep my eye on my room thermometer, once a rooms warm it doesn't usually take much to keep it warm.
It's cross draughts causing air movement that tends to cause you to loose heat to keep heat in a room open and close the door slowly when entering and leaving.
Can you cover more info on the running cost and difference in economy's of different types of electric radiators
We will be creating another video on precisely this subject. As a ball park (and a way to calculate the running costs) our electric radiators will draw electricity 25% of the time to maintain a set target room temperature. This means that running cost calculations should be based on 25% of the cost per kWh. For example, our 2000w electric radiator running on a tariff of 30pence per kWh will cost 2x30/4 = 15 pence per hour. The initial warm up phase will always cost the most however the Slimline Curve featured in the video will heat a room within 10-15 minutes! It is also important to note that even though electricity converts to heat energy 100% (based on the laws of physics), this does not mean that the running costs from one electric heater/radiator to another will be the same. The running costs are determined by the heat management technology (i.e. how the heater delivers the set temperature). Our electric radiators include multiple advanced energy saving technology to help minimise wastage and help reduce running costs.

Good evening. I have just found your channel. As someone who lives in a stone built 300 yr old house & have just gone solar I am looking towards these products to reduce my gas consumption in the winter months. This might, perhaps, maybe .....be cheaper than dipping into our gas companies. But I am still not sure. I will do some sums. You might have a good product here. 🙂
Interesting stuff
My Energy Performance Certificate recommends replacing my storage heaters with High Retention Storage Heaters, can I replace with the models in your video instead and still improve my Epc? Thank you
The current EPC certificates do not recognise advanced LOT electric radiators even though they are up to 50% cheaper to run than economy 7 storage heaters. We have had meetings with our local MP and correspondence from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) regarding the current EPC guidelines. We hope this will change in the near future to help homeowners and renters save money on their heating bills and help the environment.
Are you supplying to India, we have electricity problem, any solution which will run with out electricity
Would you be so kind as to advise me as to why you believe your comparable 'aluminum' heaters are better than say the German made Eco Strad IQ Ceramic Radiators - like for like?
Hi David, thank you for your message. Our electric radiators are manufactured in the EU however please contact us on 01423 733000 or info@bestelectricradiators.co.uk to find out more about our advanced electric radiators. Many thanks, Best Electric Customer Support.
Hello like the review I’m looking into getting a electric heating system for my 3 family house is that company in New York ?
Hi, we are a UK based company currently only selling to the UK and Europe.
Hi there I just watched your video on CZcams I need to replace my old storage heater with electric heater so where can get more information on heater
Thank you for your message. Replacing storage heaters with advanced energy efficient electric radiators will help you save up to 50% off your heating bill. It will also allow you to control the temperature of each room precisely when you want it. Please contact us by telephone (01423 733000) or email sales@bestelectricradiators.co.uk. You can also read more here: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/replacing-storage-heaters/
Hello I live in New York is there a place Dow hear that sells what you have or home visits ?
I'm afraid our products are only currently available in the UK. Do you think there is a potential market for such products in colder areas of the US?
Is it efficient to run a house on electric heaters without solar, so just using mains power?
Yes. Many of our customers switch from gas central heating to electric heating without solar and after 80,000 sales we have not received any negative feedback regarding running costs.
Very interested
Hi Kristy, please call 01423 733000 or visit our website: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk
what brands do you recommed? is Rointe any good?
We recommend our own brand (Best Electric) as we have the highest TrsutPilot rating in the UK electric radiator market. The Slimline Curve is our best selling range which is the slimmest in the market: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/. There is also a Wifi model if you would like to control your radiator remotely: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-wifi-electric-radiator/
At the end of the day the person looks at how much the price starts from for your smallest ones? I’ll hazard a guess and say your radiator starts at around £350 to £500 each? It’s only a guess, I’m looking to stop using gas and get it disconnected so I don’t have to pay the (crooks energy supplier) the daily standing charge! At the moment I’m looking at all sorts of electric heating options, even greenhouse tubes heaters lol , because I have a solar system since 2011 and I’m an anorak too 😂, and the other benefit I have is that I live in a new build 2004 and it’s well insulated and holds the heat very well, insulation is extremely important no matter what age a property is, it will save everyone lots of pounds for many many years to come 😉
Hello, does your aluminium radiators have a ceramic heating element?
The Comfort Control range is an aluminium ceramic core electric radiator. You can find more information at the following link: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/comfort-control-electric-radiator-ceramic/. This range represents approx. 3% of our total sales however the Slimline Curve included in the video above is by far our best seller and represents approximately 90-95% of sales. Most customers are looking for a super-slim, fast heating radiator which is ultra energy efficient. We have sold over 50,000 units of the Slimline Curve in the past 6 years and it is the slimmest electric radiator in the uk. It is a Dry-Thermal radiator and has gained the highest TrustPilot rating: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/. This product is designed and owned by Best Electric Radiators.
We are aware of several counterfeits of the Slimline Curve on the UK market which are being manufactured outside Europe. The products are almost identical to the Slimline Curve in design and appearance however the internal components, longevity and efficiency are completely different.
We had those heaters in germeny 38 years ago Australia is going backwordss
What are the sizes? I’m looking for a depth of 300 x 1 meter.
Hi, The dimensions can be viewed at the following link www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/ however the shortest radiator is 500mm which sounds like it will be too high for your requirements. This radiator will fit on a dwarf wall of 600mm.
Would it still be efficient to have an electric radiator behind the sofa.
Heat naturally rises so it is fine to put a radiator behind a sofa however we recommend a distance of at least 10cm in front of the radiator to prevent too much radiant heat being absorbed into the fabric of the sofa.
Would I be able to dry my laundry on them or is that option still not available on electric radiators?
I'm afraid it is not recommended to cover electric radiators as this will prevent normal airflow out of the top grill and can reduce the life span of the heater.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk Thank you for your reply but the question is: Is it prohibited?
Like on the electric heater " Do not cover" sign or will it be safe? Thank You!
@@plaksini There is a do not cover sign on the radiator so it will not be safe.
First of all electricity prices are also going up and second how would a family keep warm in a (much predicted) blackout?
You're boiler runs on electricity too of course
Traditional heating solutions such as gas central heating require electricity to pump hot water around the system. They also operate in a very different way to electric radiators therefore there is significant wastage with a gas or oil central heating system.
● A GCH system heats up a large volume of water and circulates the water around pipework to each radiator whereas electric radiators delivery the heat directly from the source. Up to 50% of heat can be lost via pipework.
● Electric radiators are 100% efficient and thermostatically controlled within each room whereas a GCH system has a central thermostat often in the hallway or landing.
This all means that individual rooms such as a living room can be heated exclusively therefore eliminating wastage. The rooms in a typical 2 or 3 bed property can be heated precisely when you require the heat as each radiator is fully programmable. Alternatively you can simply turn the radiator on or off manually giving you complete control.
They also include the following energy saving technologies which contribute to reduce heating bills:
● Open window technology which will detect when a window or door is left open and will reduce the power output to reduce wastage
● Predictive heat up technology which will commence the heating process earlier so that the room temperature is achieved precisely when required.
● Intelligent temperature control which will prevent the radiator from over-shooting the target temperature. The radiator will reduce the output before it reaches the set target temperature.
● Manufactured with aluminium which is the best material for fast conductivity of heat into a room
● Wifi controlled option which will allow the user to control each individual room temperature away from the property. For example, if you only want heating in 1 or 2 rooms prior to arriving back home.
GCH radiators can be turned down or off using thermostatic valves however this reduces the efficiency of the heating system. There is also a lag heat up and cool down time whereas a dry thermal electric radiator will delivery heat instantly and heat a room within 5-10 mins.
GCH systems require regular maintenance which can cost several hundred pounds per year. There is no maintenance required with an electric radiator.
Electricity is here for the foreseeable future and with the government committing to its Net Zero Strategy, it’s important that we all do our part to be less wasteful and reduce our impact on the environment.
I just found out these can come with a plug so I'm thinking if you had an Ecoflow or Bluetti or Jackary battery you could at least heat one room at a time...🤔
Can you please told me about GoodHome Electric 2000W White Duben Heater
I'm afraid we haven't come across this product in the past.
oil filled electric radiators are probably a better choice over electric radiators. I have a property that had awful storage heaters everywhere so I am now looking to switch to infrared heating if I can find the right one's to go for
We sell 3 types of electric radiators which pretty much covers the whole of the electric radiator market (Oil, Ceramic and Dry Thermal). Interestingly Oil filled electric radiators are our least popular range because they are big, chunky, heavy and take a while to heat a room. Although it is rare, they also run the risk of leaking over time.
The key point to make here is that all our electric radiator ranges whether they are oil, ceramic or dry are all equally energy efficient which means they all cost the same to run. As a result most customers prefer a super slim, lightweight Dry Thermal electric radiator in particular our Slimline Curve range because they are the slimmest electric radiator in the UK (www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/). This range always receives the highest TrustPilot rating and is manufactured from 100% high grade aluminum. It is available with Wifi or non-Wifi.
As for infrared heating, we have chosen not to sell this type of property because we do not believe it is the future of home heating.
Do a lot of reserch into infrared, need ceiling or angled, high mounted wall hanging for best results. Very pricey for the ones that really do the job. Great advertising, very neat or pretty but remember they heat the object not the air.
@@esme6346 We do not recommend Infrared heating as the majority of homeowners do not want ceiling mounted heaters.
Nope. Ceramics stay warm _much_ longer than oil, so need less energy overall to maintain a comfortable level of heat.
Oh - and infrared is crap. Been there, done that.
Wer to buy this heater
How do these compare to panel heaters as that’s what I have and have just found my bill is £289 for nov in a small 2 bed flat!
Panel heaters are notoriously expensive to run which is why many homeowners switch to advanced electric radiators which are packed with energy saving technology. You can read more by reading about our most popular range called the Slimline Curve: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk surely though a 2000w heater is going to use 2kwh no matter how it works..weather it is infrared, oil filled, electric radiator or panel heater? How is this more efficient? I need to find an alternative that is not going to result in high cost to run
@@joannehorrex7548 We have sold over 80,000 electric radiators without any complaints regarding running costs.

Have them on but cut your room temperature to 14°C enough to keep hands warm and put a couple of layers of clothing on.
A lot depends on how many outside walls you have the less you have the cheaper to heat.
I fitted 2 log burners this year in my home, so hoping to hardly use Central heating during the winter. I’ve been stocking up on wood since 2020 and often get wood free from Gumtree.
I doubt these electric radiators could compare or save me money.
I understand why people think log burners are great: look cool and free fuel However…….Log burners are not only terrible for the environment ( and I know some people don’t care!) but they are also terrible for you! It’s like having 6 diesel trucks in your living room, the particulate matter they belch out is horrendous.I hope you don’t have asthma as it will get worse using your log burners. This winter with the price of fuel will see people in towns using log burners and we will be overcome by fumes worse than those from traffic, it’s a complete mess caused by government not banning them and in fact encouraging their use by putting approved by DEFRA stickers on them, but they are not safe…
Stay warm this winter, I don’t blame you, instead I hope you are able to afford cleaner healthier fuels in future years x
@@fuzzy3562 Governments around the world are pushing for electric cars..Hmmm where do we get electricity from?.. it's hardly the cleanest method to help the environment, yet people are clueless about how dirty this is.
@@fuzzy3562 check out defra approved eco burners for the facts and always only burn kiln dried logs or correctly dried wood. They are renewable as it's a crop that is regrown. The particulates are massively reduced by burning at the correct fuel at the correct remperature. There is no belching smoke, not in the air or back in the room with a correctly fitted unit and flue.
Well _duuuuh..._
How's it going so far? Genuinely interested.
What is the warranty on them ow many years come with it or is it a lifetime warranty on it
The warranty on our products is 2 years on the electronic components and 10 years on the body. You can read more at the following page: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/warranty/
Is it safe to leave running in all rooms when not home?
Yes it is. Our electric radiators are used throughout the home and include safety mechanisms such as thermal cut out switches. Our best selling radiator is the Slimline Curve which is the slimmest electric radiator in the UK: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/
Has anyone considered that the current price (KW/h) for electricity is three times more than for gas?

Where in the US are you based? Please can you reply to sales@bestelectricradiators.co.uk
Old school heating just when electric going up 1st October you can just buy a electric oil radiater you can move around and use in the room you need .
All our electric radiator ranges have optional leg supports if you prefer to have the flexibility of moving them around the home. Be wary of cheaper style oil filled electric radiators as they can emit an odour and occasionally leak which is probably why oil filled radiators are our least popular product. They are also big and heavy and take a while to heat a room. We always recommend Dry Thermal electric radiators which represent over 90% of our total sales because they are super slim, lightweight and heat a room quickly. They also gain the best reviews and crucially the running costs are slightly cheaper to run than oil filled because the heat delivery is more responsive.
Yes I’ve just done that 👍
What's the cost?.
I would like to buy one.
You can view size options and prices by clicking on the following link: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/
Is there a way to sync these up so they come on as and when you want them to?
Judging by the comments and also by seeing that most homes are still being fitted with gas combi boilers, there's something that tells me these still aren't quite there yet in terms of efficiency/cost effectiveness. Would love to be able to compare and contrast with my Nest system during the winter months.
The standard non-Wifi range of the Slimline Curve electric radiator operates individually from one radiator to another however they are all fully programmable so you can set each radiator to deliver precisely what you want temperature wise, at the time you want it. This level of controllability is not possible with a traditional heating system. The Wifi model will allow you to control each individual radiator from an app and also group radiators together. This means that you can control several radiators at the same time rather than accessing each radiator (you will be able to turn all radiators on with the touch of a single button from your mobile phone or tablet).
This decade will be very interesting when it comes to home heating especially when we are unable to install gas and oil central heating boilers. It’s an inevitability that we will have to change the way we heat our homes which we view as similar to the transition similar from the combustion engine to electric vehicles. The options out there are limited but there are so many benefits with electric heating especially with advanced modern electric radiators. Simple installation, zero maintenance, fast heat delivery, no carbon emissions, environmentally friendly particularly if coupled with solar capture or if you register with an electricity provider who produces 100% of their electricity from zero-carbon sources.
We realise that the running costs of a heating system are often the primary concern of most homeowners. Therefore we should mention we have sold over 80,000 electric radiators and have not received any negative feedback regarding running costs. This is a real testament to the viability of electric heating and advanced modern electric radiators as a sustainable heating solution for now and the future.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk you can control individual radiators with gas central heating. Really you need to be accurate and honest with advice given.
@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 You can control water filled central heating radiator with individual thermostats however reducing the output of radiators on a GCH system reduces the efficiency of the whole system. This is not the case with electric radiators.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk my boiler will run at over 90% with just one radiator working and that's about a third of the cost of running your electric radiator. Smoke and mirrors are not good tools to use.
@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 Your boiler will always run at the same efficiency irrespective of how many radiators you have switched on however you need to consider the wastage of heat energy via the pipework throughout the property which can be up to 50%. Each time you turn a radiator down or off, the efficiency of the central heating system will be reduced.
I’m quite interested in these, but I can’t see these being scalable on our current grid. These make MUCH more sense to me than heat pumps which are so expensive and unsatisfactory for most people. Surely the solution is to put generation strain on the grid not on householders? I mean, why on earth are we not fast track building loads of Nuclear power plants and renewables and encouraging people to use these?
Hi Dean, your comments are absolutely spot on. Investing in renewables and nuclear energy to help clean the environment and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels from the rest of the world. Electricity is here for the long term unlike gas and oil.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk Indeed, and I think you’re ahead of the game here and have a big future. The ease and cost of installation as well as the ability to maximise efficiency through scheduling etc is attractive, and many properties that can’t facilitate a heat pump will be scratching around for a solution. I need to keep my baby’s room at 18 degrees all night, I don’t want the boiler to be running all night, and smart radiator values are rubbish, so I’m looking at electric radiators…
Do you have a price list
Please lick on the following link to see the price list for our best selling range, the Slimline Curve: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/
If i had 3 of your 2000 watt rads it would cost £1.80 per hour, And if ran them in winter for 8 hours that would cost £14.40 a day over 30 day at 8 hours a day would cost £432 a month is that saving you money ?
Advanced thermostatic electric radiators draw electricity 25% of the time once they have reached the target room temperature. This means that the running costs will be approximately 1/4 of your calculations. Also, the majority of UK homes only require 1x2000w electric radiator which is usually located in the living room as this is usually the largest room. The rest of the rooms will need smaller output radiators which will be less expensive to run and used less frequently such as bedrooms. We have sold over 80,000 radiators and never received any negative feedback regarding running costs.
Imagine it would cost £50,000 or so a year to heat a reasonably sized house. I could be over exaggerating. We use 3x the national average electric so around 10,000 kWh which is without heating that is by Gas.
@@organichuman Heating your home with electricity will allow you to take precise control of the heat delivery into each room therefore eliminating wastage. Following 80,000 sales we have not received any negative feedback regarding running costs. In fact many customers save money on their heating bills when using electric radiators because of several factors:
● Electric radiators are 100% energy efficient at the point of source
● Zero heat loss from pipework
● Zone heating which allows you to heat precisely the rooms you want to heat at the precise temperature
● Zero maintenance costs
● Zero to minimum repair costs
● No expensive boiler replacements
Electricity is here for the foreseeable future and with the government committing to its Net Zero Strategy, it’s important that we all do our part to be less wasteful and reduce our impact on the environment.
@@organichuman Based on your figures for electric that would cost £2770 for that amount. My yearly bill for gas and electric is £1660, I took a 3 year fixed price in Sept. 2021 so have another 2 years yet.
Gas and electric systems will load mach either via a thermostat or via weather compensation. With equal controls the energy used will be almost exactly the same with gas being slightly less efficient but including maintainance far far lower cost. The advantage of electric is low capital investment. This company are making very misleading claims to big up the value of their product. Honesty is what is needed not misleading claims.
Wouldn't they need to be ~4x more efficient than GCH given the per Kw/h costs just to break even?

@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk most homes heat most rooms at any time but if individual room control is needed many options are available. If only one radiator is calling for heat the volume of water to be heated is not great. Thermostatic control on both electric and gas/ water systems can use algorithms to prevent overshoot but commonly heating is now run on weather compensated controls providing far greater comfort than reactive controls. Steel radiators offer no significant delay to heat transfer and aluminium radiators are available if so desired. WiFi app control for individual radiators is available for traditional radiators but it's mostly not needed.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk gas boilers require an annual service and come with a 12 year warranty. Maintainance is no where near your claimed cost.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk for us to use electricity to do our bit for the environment it's far better to use heat pumps. With the high scop available now direct electric radiators can't come close.

Gas and oil will be phased out in the next few years?? Good luck with that prediction.
People need to start walking again especially in the US and cut SUV car use.
Heat pumps at a potential 400% efficiency, electric radiators at 100% or a gas boiler at 92% but with gas at the third of the price? Yes gas boilers need to be maintained but it is still my first choice.
Heat pumps are only really suitable for very well insulated properties and the average payback is 42 years.

I’m in a fully electric property - with the heat and hot water coming from a direct hot water tank (on Economy 7). I get the idea and thinking behind it, but on particularly cold days it just can’t cope. Hot shower and a blast of heat in the morning and that’s about your lot, after spending money on heating it six hours overnight.
Crap system. Worst thing is that it’s expensive too.
These radiators I’m sure are much better - but really expensive to run!
Thank you for your comment. Electric water filled central heating systems are notoriously expensive to run in comparison to traditional gas and oil CHS because 1) the cost of electricity is higher than gas and oil and 2) they experience the same heat wastage and lack of control which gas and oil CHS experience. We recommend using independent advanced LOT20 electric radiators for each room and a separate electric water heater to provide hot water to taps, shower, bath, etc. This will allow you to have heat precisely when you where you want it and avoid wastage. The Slimline Curve is the slimmest electric radiator in the UK at 51mm and represents over 95% of our total sales: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/p/slimline-curve-electric-radiator/
Don't con people who are desperate to save on energy costs.
We specialise in energy efficient electric radiators packed with advanced energy saving technologies. Isolating heat in the most used rooms is a great way to reduce and eliminate wastage particularly with the benefit of a separate thermostat in each room.
The primary concern for the majority of our customers is the running costs of our electric radiators. We have sold over 80,000 electric radiators and have not received any negative feedback regarding running costs. This is reflected in our TrustPilot reviews which you can view at the following link: uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk

@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk while electric heating has a ace your adds are not fully informative and are designed to.mislead people into a decision to benefit you financially and not to help them make a good decision. This is low and dishonest and needs to be called out.
@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 Hi Andrew, Please can you confirm why you believe our message is misleading? We have an excellent relationship with our local Trading Standards office and have the highest TrustPilot score in the UK electric radiator market.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk you advertisement suggests that to reduce energy costs installing your electric radiators is a good option. The viewer is lead to think that your electric radiators will be lower cost than their existing radiators. This would only be true if comparing less efficient electric radiators and not gas to water radiators. Most radiators are of the gas to water type. Of course a small number of properties could benefit from your product but that is not explained.
@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 We are comparing traditional gas to water CH with electric CH. This is the whole reason for the video explaining that it can be cheaper to heat your home with advanced modern electric radiators by isolating heat in the most used rooms. Up to 50% of heat energy can be lost through GCH water fed pipework and GCH boilers are not as efficient as electric radiators.
When will the EPC take account of energy efficient electric radiators they all do terrible on the EPC!
Good question. We have been in discussions with our local MP and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to highlight our concerns. It's a travesty that the current rules do not take into consideration advances in electric heating especially as they help to save homeowners money and also help the environment at a time where we should all be playing a part to be more energy-efficient. We are hopeful the EPC will be updated soon.
These types of radiators are absolutely terrible.....have them in different homes I've lived in and the heat disappears as soon as you turn them off and if you keep them on constantly you won't be able to afford to eat..... they are the worst heat sources I have ever encountered .
Have you purchased your radiators from our company? Are your radiators LOT20? Electric radiators can vary hugely from one brand to another. We've not experienced this type of feedback following 80,000 sales. We also have the highest Trustpilot rating in the UK electric radiator market: uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk
Can you explain me how you beat physics?
Any electrical radiator is 100% efficient. What power goes in as electricity - same is converted to heat. Period.
How this Ceramic is better when we talk about saving watts?
If you gonna tell me about voice control or heat-retentive ceramic plates and heat lock "technology" - then please don’t, because whatever power it takes to heat them up - it will be released later. What is the difference between max in now and release slow later vs mid consumption all day long? Answer is none. For example 2.4kw for one hour and then 5 hours no power taken = 400w radiator constant heating for 6 hours.
The laws of physics dictate that all electric heating devices are 100% energy efficient. The actual running costs of one heater/radiator to another is impacted by several contributing factors such as the accuracy of the thermostat, the type of thermostat (digital or analogue), in-built technology that prevents overshooting of the target temperature, predictive heating technology that can calculate and anticipate how long it takes to heat a room to a predetermined temperature, etc. All these factors help minimise energy wastage to help maximise energy efficiency. Our electric radiators include all these energy saving components and technologies.
Over the years we have received fantastic feedback from our customers claiming in excess of 50% savings on running costs from their old heating system to our electric radiators. In fact this morning we had feedback from a customers that our radiators were 56% more efficient than their previous heating solution (electric storage heaters). The savings of course can vary significantly from one home to another however to date (following 80,000 sales) we have not received a single complaint or concern regarding the running costs of our electric radiators.
Cheap and cheerful electric heaters are notoriously expensive to run in comparison to advanced LOT20 electric radiators. You can read more at the following link: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/energy-efficient-heating/
This a scam. It's not possible to make an electric heater that's not 100% efficient.
They have been around for a hundred years.
If your going down this route, You need one portable radiant heater and carry it from room to room.
Fixing an electric heater to the wall negates it's main advantage; portability.
The exception is the bathroom when the heater needs to be fixed to the wall/ceiling, high out of reach with the switch either a pull switch or outside the room. Special radiant heaters are made for this purpose.
Our electric radiators include optional leg supports which allow the radiator to be moved around the property into different rooms.
The laws of physics dictate that 100% of electricity is converted to 100% heat energy however the efficiency (actual cost) of running an electric radiator is determined by the heat management technology in the electronics.
Less advanced heaters such as cheap and cheerful fan or convector heaters are not LOT20 compliant so have basic controls and programming features whereas advanced electric radiators are packed with advanced energy saving technology and optional Wifi control to minimise wastage and help reduce running costs.
This makes advanced electric radiators suitable for a permanent heating solution whereas cheaper style electric heaters are considered a temporary heating solution. We have received many customer reviews over the past 8 years confirming the low running costs compared inferior electric heaters and Economy 7 electric storage heaters of up to 50%.
What exactly is "energy efficient" about this product? Energy isn't "wasted" regardless of which type of radiator you use. It's simply converted from one energy to another. Energy is only lost through poor insulation.
An electric panel heater only makes sense if you don't have a gas or oil boiler, or if you have solar/wind turbine power. Otherwise, being "energy efficient" room by room can be established easily by balancing the output of each radiator. You don't need aluminium or ceramic rads to achieve this.
The easiest way to save money on your heating bill is to not heat bedrooms when not in use. This can be done manually with standard thermostatic valves (just like switching off lights when not in use), or upgrade to digital thermostatic valves, which are a fraction of the cost of a new electric radiator.
This infomercial is very misleading.
Energy efficient electric radiators are called "Lot20" include multiple energy saving technologies such as open window technology, predictive start technology based on the insulation properties of a room and the average heat up time, technology which prevents overshooting or undershooting of target temperatures, etc. They also have individual digital room thermostats which are monitoring and regulating the precise temperature in each room within 0.1 degree, whereas traditional forms of heating have 1 or 2 thermostats in the entire home which are not accurately measuring individual room temperatures. You can read more here: www.bestelectricradiators.co.uk/blog/lot-20-ecodesign-compliance/
Electric radiators work in a very different way to gas or oil central heating systems. Gas and oil CHS are wasteful as heating a volume of water and pumping it around pipework to heat 1 or 2 rooms is very inefficient with heat loss under floorboards and walls, boiler exhausts, etc.
The efficiency of a gas or oil CHS in a typical home is maximised when all radiators are operating together however the efficiency is reduced when radiators are turned down or off using thermostatic valves. This is not the case with electric heating as 100% of the heat energy converted from electricity is delivered directly into each room.
There is zero maintenance with electric radiators and a professional is not required for installation.
@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk Exactly. More than once you've eluded to examples of poor insulation. Thanks for clarifying and agreeing with me.
The features on these electric radiators are what you get with digital smart thermostatic valves, so there's still no benefit to changing to electric heating for the that reason alone.
Also, DIY installation as suggested would not be advised. Try ripping out a central heating system and replacing it stock with electric radiators without checking load values at the consumer unit and the cabling throughout the home on a standard ring circuit or worse, an old fuse box. Top tip: have the local fire bridge on standby.
While these may be "maintenance free", a standard rad & gas/oil system come with lengthy guarantee periods, sometimes up to 12 years. I doubt these electric rads will. Like a modern flat screen telly, once it's broken, that's the end. Conversely, spare parts and registered engineers for gas/oil heating systems are everywhere.
This company has no liability for giving bad advice, so arm yourself with knowledge first.
@@ottofumbler7267 As mentioned above, adding thermostatic valves to an existing gas or oil CHS reduces the efficiency of the entire system.
We have sold over 80,000 electric radiators over the past 10 years and not come across a situation where a customer has overloaded their electric supply, however we recommend double checking with a qualified electrician.
You have mentioned the local fire brigade. We have not experienced any safety issues with our products so no cause for concern.
Electricity will always be available and there's a real movement towards cleaner heating solutions that don't involve burning fossil fuels.
There you go folks. "Consult a qualified electrician"... who will need to visit your property to complete a full test of your electrics, tell you you need a separate ring circuit (due to the high load) to swap over from gas/oil central heating to a fully electric system, and then quote you ££££s for a rewire.
So, when you've scrapped your gas/oil system (at a cost plus skip & recycling charges), bought all new electric rads, and had your electrics tested and a new ring (per floor) plus a possible consumer unit upgrade all paid for, plus a main fuse upgrade from your electricity provider, how long before you see the "savings" on your heating bill make economic sense? Don't forget the carbon footprint of scrapping your existing system and the manufacturing of new electric rads.
Or for a fraction of the cost, upgrade your thermostatic valves and insulation, and boost your green credentials in a jiffy.
"There will always be electricity", suggesting that gas is running out. Someone better tell the national grid that, as they're currently generating 35% of the UK's energy from gas fired stations, which is higher than any other single source.
Now you have the facts, and not just a sales pitch. You decide.
@@ottofumbler7267 Checking with an electrician is only a recommendation. It is not necessary in most cases and as mentioned previously, we have not come across a situation in the past 10 years whereby a customer has overloaded their circuit.
We've seen a huge transition over the past 3+ years from homeowners moving away from traditional fuels to heat their home, run their cars, etc. and electricity is here to stay for the long term. It's super clean with no boiler, pipework etc. so for many homeowners its a sensible and viable consideration.
What a load of crap.no such thing as energy efficient electric radiators.a 10 pound 1000w radiator uses the same as a 300 pound 1000w radiator

@@BestelectricradiatorsCoUk Heat is heat no matter what fancy control you wrap around it. At the end of the day a room/house has a certain heat loss at a given outside temperature and in order to maintain the desired room temperature you need to replace that loss by emitting a certain amount of heat, and that heat will always use the same amount of 100% efficient electric whether it's a fancy £300 radiator or a £30 basic oil filled rad from Argos. The only thing controls can do to help is to prevent overheating the room and wasting power you didn't need to use, but anything with a thermostat can manage that. You may save tiny amounts by better controlling output as the room reaches temperature so there's no residual heat left in the radiator that's not required causing a slight overshoot, but that's going to be a minimal saving as the excess heat wouldn't be wasted, it would just mean the room was slightly warmer than set so the rad wouldn't need to come on again so quickly. Also claiming above that they only run 25% of the time once up to temperature is also a load of rubbish, the amount any emitter has to run to maintain the target temperature will be entirely dependent on how well insulated the room is and therefore how quickly it loses its heat, just the same as with any heating system.
With gas less than a third the price of electricity and the average modern boiler at least 80% efficient even when not set up in a particularly efficient way you're still looking at costs to heat by electric well over double that of gas, and please don't spout rubbish trying to justify any cost saving by claiming boilers costing several hundred pounds a year to maintain, an annual service is under £100 and if you're spending several hundreds every year keeping it running then its probably about time it was replaced anyway, but even you had to spend a few hundred quid every single year it would still end up being a significantly cheaper way to heat than electric in all but the smallest, most well insulated homes.

We believe you are referring to a panel or fan heater which deliver 100% convection heat which can feel stuffy and can push dust around the room. We sell advanced electric radiators that deliver a blend of convection and radiant heat, which is the best form of heat delivery into a room.
