It seems you can have almost anything you want these days, as long as it’s painted white. From fridges to fuse-boxes, our homes are filled with the clinical glare of “white goods.” Microwaves, toasters, dishwashers, washing machines, tumble dryers, almost every electrical appliance there’s ever been, comes in the standard, all-encompassing whitewash. While the colour has it benefits, we yearn to break with tradition and explore something new. For the daring individuals among us, why not consider one of our designer electric radiators…in black.

The Ecostrad iQ Ceramic
The Ecostrad iQ Ceramic provides a refreshing change from ubiquitous radiators. Available in a slate black colourway, this striking smart heater is housed in sleek aluminium, accented with straight lines that really add to its minimalist elegance.
Next-generation smart heating
Unlike most electric radiators in this price bracket, the iQ Ceramic comes with an impressive array of extra features, on top of the things you’d expect from a modern heater like 24/7 programming and open-window detection. WiFi-ready straight out of the box, connect the radiator to your smart phone app and adjust temperatures, create a heating schedule and more, all on the move. Perhaps its most impressive feature is its Motion Detection Mode. This setting only produces warmth when the heater detects movement, like when you enter the room. Equally, if you leave the room, the iQ Ceramic will automatically switch off. It’s such a straightforward feature, but it totally eliminates the need for manual adjustment. Win-win!
If you’re initially drawn to the iQ Ceramic by its stunning looks, it’s comforting to know it has the brains and technology to match!
