Electric Heating Redruth

Looking to upgrade your heating in Redruth? You’re not alone. Many homeowners are moving away from outdated gas systems and old storage heaters, switching to modern, energy-efficient electric heating solutions that keep homes all across Cornwall warm AND their energy bills lower.

Why choose electric heating in Redruth?

Many homes in Redruth and across Cornwall were built without easy access to mains gas, or they rely on old, expensive storage heaters. That’s where modern electric heating steps in; no pipes, no boiler, and no endless maintenance visits.

Electric radiators like our NEOS electric radiator, work perfectly in Redruth’s traditional stone cottages as well as modern builds. They’re easy to install with minimal disruption and a quick turnaround, effective to run due to our Quadvex technology, and give you total control over every room.

The benefits of electric radiators for your Redruth home:

Energy efficient: Our NEOS electric radiators store heat in a natural stone core and release it slowly while using minimal electricity, meaning your rooms stay warm even when the power isn’t constantly on.

Low maintenance: Forget about boiler servicing, leaking pipes or expensive call-outs. With the NEOS electric radiator, there’s no moving parts, so maintenance is very little. That’s why we offer a 25 year guarantee, because we believe the NEOS will last a lifetime!

Better control, better comfort: Not only do we offer multiple thermostats to suit you, you can adjust each room exactly to suit your lifestyle, whenever you like. No more heating rooms you’re not using. Plus, with our app control, you can control your radiators from anywhere!

Ideal for Redruth properties: Whether you’re in a traditional stone cottage, a terraced house in the town centre, or a newer build on the outskirts, electric radiators can be fitted with minimal disruption and no major renovations. (You can literally plug them in). What’s better is we offer 3 different models (standard, horizontal and vertical) to fit in any space, standard, horizontal and vertical. 

Are electric radiators more affordable to run in Redruth?

Electric heating isn’t always cheaper to run than gas, and we’re not going to argue with that. Gas has historically been cheaper per unit of energy, so in many cases, an old gas boiler can still be the lowest-cost option to run day-to-day (especially if it’s newer and efficient).

However, electric radiators can still make financial sense for many homes in Redruth, especially when you consider the full picture:

Older gas systems often waste energy, with heat lost through old pipework and up to 40% of heat is lost to the back wall with normal radiators. And let’s not forget about older boilers running inefficiently. BUT, electric radiators like the NEOS, give you full control, so you only heat the rooms you’re using. Plus our cool wall technology helps reduce heat loss to the back wall, meaning you get more usable warmth for your money. That targeted control can help reduce waste and, for most homes, lower overall bills. Maintenance costs are also much lower, as electric radiators don’t require annual boiler servicing, gas safety checks, or pipe repairs.

If you choose a green or off-peak electricity tariff (like the Octopus Cosy Tariff), you can also reduce your running costs while using electricity during lower cost times.

In short, while electric heating isn’t always the cheapest per kilowatt-hour, it offers more control, simpler maintenance, and can work out better overall, especially in homes without a gas connection or where upgrading a gas system would be costly.

Can electric heating work in my older house in Redruth?

Absolutely. Many Redruth homes are older, with thick stone walls and no existing central heating pipework. Electric radiators are a perfect match because they don’t require any pipes, tanks or external units, just a standard electricity supply (often a 3 pin plug will do)!

This makes them perfect for:

• Traditional Cornish stone cottages where major alterations aren’t practical

• Properties without gas supply

• Extensions and conversions

• Homes where installing gas would be disruptive or expensive
