What are the different types of slimline electric heater?

“Electric heater” is a relatively broad term that applies to various electric heating appliances, covering a range of different designs and styles of product. Our slimline electric wall heaters encompass both on-demand panel heaters for occasional use, as well as ultra-modern infrared heating panels that use radiant heat to warm spaces, objects, and people directly. Our panel heaters are a superb choice for space-saving heating in less frequented rooms, offering rapid, on-demand warmth when you need it most. Using lightweight heating elements, these slender electric heaters boast compact designs that make them perfect for installing on crowded walls – simultaneously freeing up space and keeping you comfortably warm. Infrared heating panels represent the pinnacle of unobtrusive, energy-efficient heating. These slimline electric heaters use conductive wire that’s stretched across their surface to create radiant heat. Unlike electric panel heaters, this unique approach to space heating doesn’t require any moving parts – which has a huge impact on their overall depth, resulting in ultra-slim heaters that are no thicker than a photo frame.

Where can I use a slim electric heater?

Slimline electric heaters have different applications depending on the type of heater you choose. Electric panel heaters provide on-demand heat that’s specifically designed for less frequented rooms, such as home offices, spare rooms, or guest rooms. While panel heaters shouldn’t be relied on for constant, all-day use, these slimline heaters can be used in rooms that need an additional heat boost in tandem with your primary heating system. Infrared heating panels can be used in every room in the home, including the bathroom, offering an all-purpose, slimline heating solution. Some infrared panels can even be mounted in a suspended ceiling grid in office environments for completely covert heating. Most of our slimline electric panel heaters are suitable for DIY installation: to tell at a glance which of our products are suitable, keep an eye out for the plug and go icons.

Which slimline heater is best?

Slimline electric panel heaters and infrared heating panels provide different methods of keeping you warm, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Panel heaters are the better choice if you need instant, on-demand heat that you’re not going to rely on throughout the day; while infrared panels are the better choice for gentle, all-day heating throughout your home – warming objects, people, and surfaces directly, rather than panel heaters which use convection to cycle warm air around a room. Panel heaters can be directly controlled using the interface on the front of the heaters and some even come with remotes for point and press heating. Infrared panels, however, don’t come with integrated controls and must be purchased with an additional controller for full access to programming and for nuanced temperature management.
