Are All Electric Radiators 100% Efficient?

You’ll often hear that electric radiators are 100% efficient. 

Technically, that’s true: every unit of electricity is converted into heat at the point of use. But when it comes to real-world comfort, running costs, and energy savings, there’s more to the story, especially if you want the best performance from your heating investment.

The Science: 100% Efficiency Explained

All electric radiators, regardless of brand or model, convert electricity directly into heat. This means there’s no loss in the process, unlike some gas or oil systems. But efficiency on paper doesn’t always translate to effectiveness in your home.

Why Effectiveness Matters

What really sets electric radiators apart is how they deliver, retain, and manage heat:

  • Heat Retention: Advanced cores store and gradually release warmth, keeping rooms comfortable for longer, even after the power switches off.

  • Smart Controls: App-based thermostats and programmable timers ensure you only use energy when and where you need it.

  • Zoned Heating: Target specific rooms instead of wasting heat on unused spaces.

  • Quality Build: Slimline design and robust insulation reduce heat loss to walls and surroundings.

The NEOS Difference

While all electric radiators are technically efficient, the NEOS is engineered for real-life effectiveness:

  • Patented soapstone core for maximum heat retention

  • Smart app controls for precision and savings

  • Modular, slimline design for any space

  • Built in Britain, with a 25-year guarantee

Key Takeaway

When choosing electric radiators, don’t just look for 100% efficiency on paper, look for a system that’s proven to deliver comfort, control, and savings in the real world.
