Technotherm KS TDI vertical radiator on wall

Has your heating seen better days? Is it just sat there, dragging down the look of your room, the odd one out in your tastefully styled interior? Your heating system doesn’t have to be the enemy of your décor, especially when there are radiators out there that can be a striking room feature all by themselves. Make your style come together with a vertical electric radiator, the heater that has it all – efficient warmth, effortless control and maximum visual impact. We’re reviewing some of our most popular vertical electric radiators to help you find the perfect finishing touch…

Ecostrad Adesso

Why our customers love it…

  • Exceptionally slim with a 30mm deep body
  • Minimalist flat-bar design
  • Uses heat-retentive oil to stay warmer for longer

In-depth look

Ecostrad Adesso vertical electric radiator - blackOur newest electric radiator for 2020, the Ecostrad Adesso is already making a splash by being our slimmest designer electric radiator yet with a body only 30mm deep. This makes it a fantastic option if you need a heating solution that hugs the wall as tightly as possible to maximise your room space. Slimness aside, it’s also one of our most attractive vertical electric radiators, sporting a chic set of flat columns that give it a minimalist feel. If you want a heat source that’s going to command attention, this is it – the Adesso is bold, avant-garde and makes designer heating affordable for every property.

Heating technology

Ecostrad Adesso electric radiators match their smart looks with smart heating tech and are fully Bluetooth programmable. Its Bluetooth connectivity essentially allows your phone to act like a remote control, giving you an intuitive way to create a custom schedule for your heating. This in-depth 24/7 programming helps to trim down your running costs, along with its heat retentive thermal oil which holds warmth for longer. If there has to be a downside to the Adesso, it’s that it requires a hardwired installation by a professional and doesn’t offer the distance control of WiFi; but if you need a permanent heat source, it’s definitely worth taking a look.

Ecostrad Allora

Why our customers love it…

  • Oil filled for a slow cool down time and more heat retention
  • Elegant rounded bar design for a softer aesthetic
  • Easy Bluetooth programming

Feefo customer review

“Radiator is simple to use and can be set to any level of heating as required

It takes a little while to warm up but gives out good heat”

In-depth look

Ecostrad Allora white vertical radiator on wallThe first thing anyone notices about the Allora is its gently curved bars that give it its signature contemporary look. It has an undeniably modern feel but a timeless quality as well, helped in no small part by its simple yet elegant design. If the hard lines of the Adesso don’t appeal to you, the Allora’s oval bar aesthetic is an excellent alternative, adding a cosy, relaxed feel into any space. It’s also available in white and anthracite, as well as single and double bar models, to match a variety of room types.

Heating technology

To keep your rooms warm and welcoming throughout the day, each Ecostrad Allora is pre-filled with a heat retentive thermal oil so they stay warmer for longer whilst keeping running costs low. Their efficiency is optimised even further through the use of Fast-Flo heating technology on the inside of the radiator body, which provides wider internal channels for increased flow and heat distribution. Like the Adesso, these radiators are designed for Bluetooth app control to simplify programming and make sure your rooms are cosy and warm when you come to use them. They’re a great choice if you want an easy way to interact with your heating.

Ecostrad Ecowärme

Why our customers love it…

  • Deep ribs allow increased contact with the air
  • Ceramic tablets provide extra heat retention
  • Made in Germany to the highest standard

Feefo customer review

“…a million times better than the old storage heaters they have replaced… very easy to get to grips with.”

In-depth look

Ecostrad Ecowarme electric radiator on wallAnd now for something completely different. The Ecostrad Ecowärme has a distinctly traditional feel compared to the Allora or Adesso, sporting a finned exterior that looks more in keeping with a central heating radiator. It might not have the most modern aesthetic but those deep fins provide increased contact with the air which helps to efficiently transfer heat into the room and offer a greater level of comfort. Available in both white and anthracite finishes for a timeless look, it’s a superb blend of tried-and-true heating technology with a modern twist.

Heating technology

Unlike the radiators above, the Ecostrad Ecowärme doesn’t have any fluid inside. This innovative electric radiator makes uses of aluminium elements to warm the air in the room quickly and provide results that take effect in minutes. Alongside these lightweight and responsive elements, the Ecowärme also uses ceramic plates inside the housing which gradually warm up as heated air passes over them. These plates are excellent at staying warm, so once they’re nice and hot, they provide additional long-lasting heat even when the radiator has stopped drawing power. The Ecowärme isn’t app enabled but it does still offer full weekly programming using its built-in control panel and provides access to other handy features like adaptive start and open window detection. For added ease of use, you can also install it DIY too, making it a fantastic option if you need to get your heating set up in a hurry.

Technotherm KS DSM

Why our customers love it…

  • High-heat retention technology for total efficiency
  • WiFi & voice control compatible
  • German engineered by experts

 Feefo customer review

“I’m very pleased with the product. It’s a nice slim shape and works very well. We recently ditched our regular GCH radiators to try electric and I have not been disappointed. They are easy to operate and wifi feature with app is very handy.”

In-depth look

Technotherm KS DSM vertical electric radiator in living roomThe Technotherm KS DSM has the same elegantly finned aesthetic as the Ecostrad Ecowärme, though, it should be noted that it has these ribs on both side of the heater, helping to maximise its efficiency even further. And, as an added bonus, this also means you can install the radiator either with the control panel aligned to the left or the right for a little more flexibility during installation. This more traditional style vertical electric radiator has no bars or separators going across the middle of the appliance like some other brands do which helps to give it a sleek, unbroken appearance.

Heating technology

This radiator uses ceramic to provide long-lasting warmth but its tablets are far larger than the Ecowärme’s and maximise its heat retention capabilities. It’s a comparatively heavy radiator but it more than makes up for it by providing outstanding efficiency. The ceramic stone inside of this radiator holds heat so well that it continues to emit heat up to 45 minutes after it’s stopped drawing power at the wall. It also emits half of its warmth in the form of radiant heat, which isn’t lost through draughts, meaning more heat stays in the room. The Technotherm KS DSM provides WiFi controllable heating when purchased with its hub accessory so you can pair it up to your phone or tablet and tweak your settings when you’re on the move. The app not only improves programming but also unlocks voice control, energy usage statistics as well as a geolocation tool. So, if intelligent heating is what you need, you won’t be disappointed with the KS DSM.
