Slimline Electric Radiators
Customer Questions
We sell electric radiators in a range of sizes, with models to suit rooms both large and small. Radiators with a higher wattage have a greater heat output and may be needed to achieve comfort temperatures in larger rooms. Each of our radiator ranges includes radiators with higher and lower wattages: these radiators typically look identical but are longer, wider, or have more heating panels.
However, all the radiators in each range will have the same depth – in almost all cases, a radiator of 1700w will be just as slim as a 450w radiator in the same range. You can calculate the total wattage required to heat your room using our interactive radiator calculator. The calculator will work out your required wattage based on the dimensions of the room and the type of property you live in. You will then need to find a radiator, or combination of radiators, that adds up to the required wattage.
Do not be tempted to choose smaller radiators than recommended – even in those rooms where space is at a premium. Under-specifying your heating may mean you cannot heat your rooms to the required temperatures. It will also mean that your radiators have to work harder and less efficiently, inflating your running costs unnecessarily.
Our slimmest electric radiators are the Haverland SmartWave and the Haverland RC Wave, which both have an ultra slim depth of 7.5cm.
The Haverland Lodel, which combines the economy of panel heating with the style and controllability of electric radiators, is only 5.5cm deep.
Our slimmest electric radiators use lightweight aluminium elements to heat up the air and the surface of the radiator. These aluminium elements are very slim and fully integrated into the radiator frame, allowing the manufacturers to create ultra-slim radiator designs.
Electric radiators are much slimmer than old fashioned storage heaters because storage heaters use heavy bricks to store and distribute heat.
Our most lightweight electric radiators are those which use solid state aluminium elements, such as the Haverland RC Wave and the Haverland Smart Wave. A 450w RC Wave electric radiator weighs no more than 5kg – perfect for mounting on stud or partition walls.
Electric radiators which use thermal fluid heating elements are slightly heavier. The Haverland Designer TT uses a specially formulated thermodynamic gel to spread heat evenly across the radiator surface. The smallest Designer TT is a 500w model which weighs 11kg.
