Tips for Choosing the Best Radiators for your Home
Tips For Choosing The
Best Radiators For Your
Home
1.Heat Output
While aesthetics are important when choosing the best radiator for your
home, radiators are there to heat your home efficiently, so heat output
should be your first consideration (even if you’re the most particular of
interior designers). The best radiators for heat output are ones that are
the correct size for your space, layout, and level of insulation.
2. Radiator Type
There are many types of central heating radiators and electric radiators,
mainly categorised by material, size and style, which we’ll get into later.
For bathrooms and kitchens alike, electric radiators such as a heated
towel rail could be the perfect solution to your heating needs, providing
a unique dual purpose of being a radiator and safe place to store, dry
and warm your towels. (And we all know that nothing beats a warm
cozy towel when you step out of the shower.)
3. Radiator Size
Generally, the larger the radiator size, the greater the heat output, but
you don’t need to take up all your wall space to accommodate a
radiator.
At its simplest, the larger the surface area, the more heat your radiator
will generate. However, it’s not a simple case of length multiplied by
width, as we’re talking about the entire surface area of the rad,
including convectors, fins, and multiple panels.
4. Colour & Style
Traditionally, the radiator is an appliance of function, not form, so most
radiators were (and still are) made in standard white, or subsequently
painted over to match the room’s decor. However, times have definitely
moved on, and modern radiators now come in a range of colours, from
the gleam of stainless steel, chrome, and silver to more contemporary
finishes like black, blue, red, anthracite, and even oxidised aluminium.
(We still have a soft spot for the run-of-the-mill radiators though.)
5. Shape
When it comes to radiator types, you really are spoilt for choice.
Whatever your tastes, you’re sure to find a radiator that complements
your space. Our collection features them all, from vertical, horizontal,
column, and panel.
6. Material
Our most modern and efficient radiators come in aluminium, which heat
up a room very quickly, and cools down quickly, too. These radiators
use very little water, so they’ll play a big part in bringing down your
heating bill in the winter months (and good for those of us concerned
with lowering our carbon footprint). In addition, many aluminium
radiators are made from recycled materials, so they’re good for the
planet in more ways than one!
