Whether or not an electrician is required to install an electric radiator depends on a few factors. All Ecostrad electric radiators are suitable for professional hardwiring, which does require an electrician, but this isn’t always necessary. Some models are able to be fitted DIY within a matter of minutes. We’re here to explain when hardwiring is necessary, its respective pros and cons, and how to know when a DIY fitting may be your best bet.

Modern designs, deluxe finishes and the latest heating technologies make up Ecostrad’s range of designer electric radiators. Using specially engineered thermal fluid, our radiators boast superior heat retention and slower cool-downs, providing homes and businesses with premium warmth and efficiency. In today’s article, we’ll be taking an in-depth look across our four designer models, from their bespoke manufacturing to innovative smart control. Let’s dive in.

Our bestselling iQ Ceramic has been an Ecostrad staple for years. Embodying all of the features we deem essential in quality electric heating – smart control, simple installation, energy efficiency, and affordability – the iQ Ceramic has been a gateway product to the world of electric heating for many businesses and homeowners. Such a classic deserves a revamp every now and then, and this October, Ecostrad launched the iQ Ceramic in black. A sleek slate black finish provides a welcome style refresh, but its internal features are just as cutting-edge as the original.

Before the proliferation of gas central heating systems, many properties relied on the money-saving technology of electric storage heaters. Used to either supplement a gas system or as a primary heating source, storage heaters took advantage of the cheaper nighttime Economy 7 or 10 electricity rate. Whilst they certainly had a place fifty years ago, have storage heaters stood the test of time? Modern ceramic electric radiators use a similar kind of technology, but with a wealth of energy-saving features and a much more sophisticated level of control, they outperform storage heaters in every way.

At Ecostrad, we are committed to providing our customers with the very best electric heating solutions the industry has to offer. We believe in constant innovation and sustainable practises, which is why our range of smart, designer and German electric radiators are built to the highest of standards. From design and technology to efficiency and control, every aspect of production is expertly delivered. Read on for a greater look at how our industry-leading electric radiators are made.

We know why electric heating is beneficial for landlords, but when it comes to landlords of student accommodation specifically, there’s a lot more to consider. In a post-covid UK, student life has changed significantly. With more remote learning than ever, students are no longer spending the bulk of their day in lecture theatres and classrooms – and as the bulk of term time occurs over the coldest part of the year, it wouldn’t surprise us if the energy bills in your student properties have risen exponentially. At Ecostrad, our electric heating solutions offer ultimate efficiency and convenience for both tenant and property owner. Remote check-ins, energy-saving features and a streamlined approach to heat management make electric heating the superior option for student accommodation, keeping bills and energy waste at an absolute minimum.
